What kind of art projects do students work on?

Projects include sewing, printmaking, felting, painting, found object sculpture, metal embossing, and so much more! Students are also encouraged to come up with goals and projects that motivate them to create. Teachers will demonstrate different tools, techniques, and art supplies, and encourage students to grow their creativity!

What should I bring?

Creativity Explored will supply all of the necessary art supplies, but if there is anything specific you love to use, you can bring that. We also recommend bringing water and a snack.
