Do you ever just need to get away for some time on your own to create? What about time to just use art as a therapy for your stresses and in the process learn something new? 

If you answered yes, then our new Art Therapy Classes are something you might enjoy! 

Here is a bit about them:

Join us for "Art Therapy" cost is $35. This is a time where you can unwind and learn a great technique. We will teach a technique based on our example. We will provide all the materials. You decide if you want to make your art piece like ours or if you want explore and create your own unique piece. You are welcome to bring in snacks and drinks. 

In most of our Art Therapy sessions you will walk away with a canvas piece, journal page or even a mini album. Class will run three hours, maybe longer, if all are having fun! 

Light snacks and drinks will be provided during class, but you are also welcome to bring your own.
