Wee Hearts Art Time

Children ages 3-5 and their grown up are invited for a weekly class of fun and creativity! Led by Shannon Donley, each Wee Hearts Art class begins with a story, game or activity, followed by an engaging art project. Grown ups will be given a Parent Extension Page with ideas for the ride home or ways to expand upon that week's activity.

What to wear...

Creativity is messy! While Shannon chooses washable materials, there may be some labor involved in completely cleaning a item of clothing. You may consider choosing an Art Time outfit that your student can wear each week that can get messy!

Registration:

Class will meet weekly on Tuesdays for 13 weeks, starting September 14. You can sign up for all 13 sessions or pick and choose each week that works for you. If you sign up for all 13 classes, ACWL-Nuveen staff will manually register you for all 13 classes. You will get confirmation emails once that has been done.

*If Tuesdays don't work for you, please contact the ACWL-Nuveen at (231) 893-2524 or nuveen@artswhitelake.org. We may be able to add a second weekly session.*

Class minimum: 4 pairs

Class maximum: 5 pairs

COVID-19 Considerations:

We kindly request that all students and grown ups wear a mask. If a little one struggles to keep their mask on throughout the entire class, that is OK - we'll just do the best we can!
