What Teachers are Saying:
"Thank you so much for the wonderful field trip! Your art hub space and organization of the lesson far exceeded any expectations that I had. You obviously have such a passion for what you do and were so amazing with the children, giving them artistic direction, answering their questions, and helping them solve problems they encountered in their art. We will definitely be back again next year!"
