Piglet's Playgroup is a weekly session for children ages 1-5 and caregivers to nurture their creative relationships. Through meaningful, sensory rich experiences including dry and messy sensory play, playdough provocations and collage tables, and paint exploration stations we will play and learn together, picking up powerful skills like problem solving and making friends. We believe in child-led learning. There is so much power (and joy) that follows when you provide your child with the space and tools to discover themselves through sensory rich, meaningful exploration. We hope you'll join us and share moments of joy magic together this fall. Caregivers will leave with an understanding of the benefits of sensory play and tips on how to encourage this journey together at home. Dress for a mess!

Influenced by nature and Navajo tradition, Gorman's art liberates paint with fluid forms and bold color choices, borrowing from both Mexican and Western techniques to redefine indigenous art in the states. Students will recreate Gorman’s Navajo woman with watercolor and pastel, learning about color and pattern to achieve a bold statement with a simple form. Perfect class for children ages 7-9 years old. 90-min class We will use a variety of media, including watercolor, acrylic & tempera paints, oil pastels, mixed media, and clay for our intermediate classes throughout the school-year!
