Children’s Art Classes with Art By Mia

     
Good day my creative creatures!!!
 
I cannot believe that there are only two classes left to my six week run at La Casa Azul Bookstore. Thus far it has been an amazing and inspiring four weeks. Laughter, creativity, joy, passion, celebration and expression were just some of the toppings added to the elements. See the information below for the remaining classes. These classes are for the youth and i have extended the ages from 4-15 so more children can take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to learn about art and history in a safe and nurturing environment.
 
Use the links below to book your space per student and note the childs full name and class attending. Feel free to contact us for more information or questions. Small children must be accompanied by an adult.
