ART ADVENTURES | 3-6 years

WEDNESDAYS | 3:30P-4:30P | 3-6 years | details & SESSION dates ⬇️ Instructor: Shaunia Grant ~ Shaunia is an artist and educator originally from New Mexico who received their MFA from the University of Georgia. They teach at UGA and can often be found creating new work in their own studio. Everyone at TREEHOUSE is a big Shaunia fan, and they absolutely love teaching kids! Shaunia lives with their wife, Gab, and their cat, Clementine, and they are constantly blowing us away with their art and their activity in the art world. Shaunia is a wonderful inspiration to our students, giving them a firsthand look at what life as a working artist can look like. We’re so lucky to have them as part of the TREEHOUSE art community! Art Adventures is all about exploring, experimenting, and having fun making art! In this class, young artists dive into process art—an open-ended approach where the focus is on the experience of creating rather than making a “perfect” finished product. Each week brings a new creative adventure as kids experiment with a variety of materials, tools, and techniques, including painting, drawing, collage, printmaking, sculpture, and more. We encourage kids to follow their curiosity, try new things, and discover their own creative ideas. There are no right or wrong answers in process art! Children are encouraged to explore, invent, problem-solve, and express themselves freely. Along the way, they build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of creativity. In Art Adventures, we emphasize: Exploration over perfection Creative freedom and self-expression Hands-on discovery with age-appropriate materials Trying new techniques and following curiosity A fun, supportive environment where every child is an artist Perfect for curious minds and messy hands! Come make, explore, and create with us. Joining us mid-session? No problem! Sign up and we’ll prorate your registration for any missed classes.
