✨ ABOUT STORY + STUDIO

Story + Studio is a thoughtfully guided art experience for young children that blends storytelling, art-making, and creative play into one joyful morning.

Each session begins with a story or art-inspired conversation, followed by guided exploration of materials. Children are invited to paint, print, build, collage, and create—focusing on process, discovery, and self-expression in a calm, supportive studio environment.

Creative play follows our art time, allowing children to connect with peers, extend their ideas, and move freely within an intentional, art-centered space.

This is a gentle, structured experience designed to nurture confidence, creativity, and a sense of belonging.

🌈 THE STORY + STUDIO EXPERIENCE

Story + Studio is:

  • Guided by an experienced art educator

  • Rooted in storytelling and creative prompts

  • Process-focused and developmentally appropriate

  • Calm, playful, and welcoming

Children are encouraged to explore materials freely, take creative risks, and express themselves in their own unique ways.

👋 CAREGIVER NOTE
