Creative Connection

Time for a mid-week camp update!

Our Cute Critters artists have worked so hard as they prepare to wrap up camp tomorrow. They are so excited to get to celebrate their hard work with some adorable bunny snuggles thanks to Sydney with .

They will each go home with four incredible art projects featuring their favorite cute critters. How amazing is their artwork looking?!

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what makes our studio feel different. ♥️

Yes, we make really fun art projects. But I think it’s so much more than that. We’re really intentional about the experience kids have when they walk through our doors. We want kids to have space to play, explore, get messy, collaborate, and try things they may have never done before.

I want every camp, class, and workshop to feel fresh and exciting. You won’t find kids sitting in front of a screen, and we rarely repeat projects. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes to provide kids with special experiences that feel unique and meaningful every single time.

But honestly, the biggest thing that makes this place special is the people. Our team cares so much about these kids. Most of our staff have backgrounds in education and it shows in the way they interact with kids every day. They encourage them when they’re feeling nervous, celebrate the proud moments, help kids work through frustrations, and genuinely make them feel seen and important.

We know a lot of the kids by name. We notice when they’re feeling extra proud of something they made. We hear the stories they tell us while they create. We celebrate their personalities, not just their artwork. I think that’s why kids want to come back again and again.

This studio has never just been about crafts or keeping kids busy. It’s about creating an experience where kids feel safe, creative, confident, and connected, and that will always matter most to me.

The fun we had at Paint + Meet Frogs Camp deserves a permanent spot on the feed. Swipe to enjoy some fun videos. Sound on for sweet excitement and giggles! 🤭🐸

Dreamy Desserts Camp was full of sweet moments! 🍓🧁

So many laughs, new friendships, and young artists trying things they’ve never done before… like paper mache!

If you haven’t discovered this yet, our camps are about so much more than the art. There are so many meaningful moments in between the projects that help kids build confidence, make new friends, and create special memories!

As we head into Week 2 of Summer camps, here’s a highlight from our camps last week! 👏🏼

It’s the last day of CAMP KICKOFF WEEK, and it’s “Fill It Up” Friday!

Today’s deal is 20% off any of our “almost full” camps! Each of these camps has 5 or fewer spots remaining. If your kiddo is interested in any of these, now is the time to save a spot. I do anticipate that each of these will fill up!

Use code FILLITUP to get 20% off any and all of these camps - no limit. I’m giving you some extra time on this one and keeping this deal open through the end of the weekend on Sunday, June 7th at 11:59pm.

Let’s get your kids into these camps before they’re full!
