This summer, Artworks is bringing the arts to you!

Artworks is piloting a free summer art experience for children 7 to 13 years old and we are coming to you! Due to limited capacity, we ask that you only register your children for this location if you live in or within the surrounding area. The session is from 10am to 1pm.

Led by Artworks’ After School Art instructors, the program fosters creative expression while promoting social connection and inclusion. Children will create an art project that is designed to grow their imagination while building their skills and confidence in a supportive, hands-on environment.

Kids will also receive a lunch that they will assemble on their own. Studies show making their own meals fosters a sense of capability and cultivates fine and gross motor skills in children.

This project is partially funded by grants from the Mecosta County Board of Commissioners and from the Rotary Club of Big Rapids.
