2/21/2026 9:52 pm

Register at https://www.hisawyer.com/maureen-claffy-art/schedules/activity-set/1658095
Wednesdays, 3-4:15pm, 3/4-5/13 - $265 for 10 weeks

Created by artist Maureen Claffy, Art Club Kids: Draw and Paint for Life is a screen-free STEAM program. This analog art program supports higher levels of mathematical reasoning by teaching an understanding of geometric shapes in space. It also supports emotional regulation and builds self-confidence and communication skills.

The program adapts to the changing needs of young artists and is completely new every week and every school year.

We turn geometric shapes into objects to capture children's imaginations while imparting technical drawing skills, using high-quality art supplies.

- Session 1: Circle -> Sphere, Oval -> Cylinder (Fall, completed)
- Session 2: Square -> Cube, Rectangle -> Rhomboid (Winter)
- Session 3: Ribbon, Triangle -> Pyramid (Spring)

All supplies are provided for classroom use and students also receive a custom-printed ArtCard with the week's lesson.
