The Paint Lab is a vibrant and inclusive special class where young artists in grades 3–5 will learn to express themselves through painting. Students will explore watercolor, tempera, and acrylics, while experimenting with color, texture, composition, and style. Alongside hands-on creative projects, students will learn about diverse artists from around the world — including artists like Alma Thomas, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Yayoi Kusama — gaining inspiration from their unique voices and visions. This is a space for imagination, learning, and fun — no experience needed, just a love of color and creativity!
Participants must currently be in grades 3 to 5.
Registration starts on 10/20/2025 and ends on 10/27/2025.
