art through the centuries

Art Through the Centuries is a multi-media art class using the world’s great artists as inspiration. The students will “meet” a famous artist at the beginning of most classes. They will enjoy a project sparked by the artist’s technique, style, medium, or subject matter. Your child will experience a variety of art methods such as drawing, painting, collage, and more. They will learn fun facts from art history as well as new art terms.

yoga with matthew clark

Offering all levels Hatha Yoga practice by donation. $10-20 suggested donation with nobody turned away for lack of funds. The practice is fairly slow paced and intentional, focusing on mindfulness, safety and form. Classes can be challenging and fulfilling and accessible to all levels with options and variations given to accommodate each individual's needs. Classes aim to give a thorough stretch, and to work on strengthening and balance. Sometimes poses are held for a duration to work on form and to build strength.

Miss Joia’s musical morning

Mondays 10:00 - 10:45 am at Victory Hall

This class is a great introduction to musical concepts such as beat, tone, melody, and harmony AND a wonderful opportunity for littles to make new friends and practice social skills! Join other littles and caregivers each week for a fun (and sometimes silly), collaborative music and movement exploration with Miss Joia.
