Kid’s Art Classes in Orlando
Let’s face it; your kids are creative geniuses. You know it’s true – the way that they used light blue on the kitchen wall, but a dark red on the dining room table, where it really shines in the light? Yup, kids love making art and they need a creative outlet where they can express themselves. Someone who can clean up might also be good. Here is a list of kid’s art schools in the Orlando area, where they can let their creative genius be free.
Art in the Park
Art in the Park is a mobile art studio, teaching classes on different topics, and moving to different locations. Each class is on a different theme, and students make something different each time. Check the calendar on the website for upcoming class locations and themes.
