Set free your inner artist!

Do you love the feel of sticky glue between your finger tips?  Do you secretly enjoy the smell of crayons?  Love the magic of inks as it swirls into a master piece?

Then join us for a 2 week MAKERspace Jr. arts and crafts event where each week children will get to explore various art mediums.

Coaster Art: This fun and colorful craft is easy and colorful. Use coasters and sharpies to make your own beautiful coaster to take home.

Crayon Art: Melt them into an assortment of styles.  This craft is quick and stunning.  All you’ll need are old crayons and a hair dryer.

During our Arts and Crafts portion of MAKERspace Jr, we will have the button maker and coloring supplies out for use along with a great activity for the week.

All supplies are provided. Geared towards ages 10 to 14.
