Children’s Art Programs
Children's Art Programs at the MAC
Art + Play (Ages 2-5)
Coming Soon!
Wednesdays, 9:30-10:30am in the MAC Studio (ages 2-5)
All children must be accompanied by an adult (no more than one caregiver each)
Instructor: Aylin Cetik

Art+Play returns to the MAC! We practice process art, which is a playful and explorative approach to creating. Here, the journey is more important than the final product. We believe children learn best through hands-on exploration and experimentation with a variety of materials and techniques. Each class offers several creative opportunities, empowering your child to make their own choices and work at their own pace. We hope to see you there!
