Art Bar is an art studio for children in New Canaan, Connecticut, providing them with authentic opportunities to make and create. In a sunny and light filled space, creative minds are encouraged to express their ideas and interests. Through the process of exploring materials, building skills, making mistakes, and envisioning solutions, your child will be taught to work and think like an artist. Whether painting, gluing, building or stitching, they will use their hands and their hearts to create art that is unique and meaningful to them. In art class, there is no right or wrong. Exploration and personal expression are encouraged through open-ended workshops, and children learn to speak about their art and the art of their peers in a positive, encouraging, and thought-provoking way.
** I am not offering classes at the moment. Please check back in 2019 **

Art Bar Summer Camp 2017 ~ Mini Maker Workshops
Art Bar is offering a summer of Mini Maker workshops for children ages three to twelve. Each week, the Mini Makers will explore all types of materials – such as wood, oil pastels, recycled material, clay, fabric, and more – in a nurturing environment where the emphasis will be on artistic expression. For preschoolers, the art projects will be open-ended and will include sensory experiences and creative play. For older kids, projects will range from open-ended process art experiences, to learning techniques like printmaking and papermaking, to making a range of crafts like paper-mâché animals, paper flowers, nature mobiles, and garlands. There will be time every day for the children to explore their own good ideas with whatever materials they choose, creating authentic art. After a week of art camp, your Mini Maker will come away with new skills and an emerging creative language.
