IT’S BACK!!
The popular MAC Youth Art Class is back on Friday afternoons. If you’re looking for something fun, creative, and totally cool for your child to do after school, MAC has the perfect solution for those Friday afternoons that school will be letting out early.
In this art program, students in Kindergarten through 5th grade can continue to build their lifelong discovery, exploration, and appreciation of the arts. During each of the six sessions, art instructor Lisa Beach will provide lessons in various aspects of art and art techniques. She will guide students through each project, while instilling creativity and expanding the imaginations of budding artists.
