Drawing Club!

Welcome to Drawing Club, a creative hangout for young artists! Kids are invited to join this monthly open-studio session where imagination leads the way. With a super loose structure, artists can sketch, experiment, share ideas, and be inspired by the creativity around them. Guided by Ms. Elana, Drawing Club offers a supportive space to explore personal projects, try new techniques, and build confidence through making art. We’ll also welcome occasional guest artists who will drop in to share tips, tricks, and drawing skills.

Come draw, connect, and create with friends!

  • Fee: $10

  • Third Tuesday of each month
