Thursday Arts and Crafts Evening

🖍️ Snip, glue & create! Join our Thursday Arts & Crafts Club for ages 8–11. Build skills while making masterpieces! ✂️✨

Get ready to unleash creativity and learn new skills! 🎨 Our Arts & Crafts Evening Group is a monthly program designed for kids ages 8–11 to explore art while building important life and social skills.

Each session features fun, age-appropriate projects that encourage:

  • ✅ Building Confidence

  • ✅ Connecting with peers

  • ✅ Develop skills that carry over to home, school, and community

  • ✅ Following directions and staying on task

  • ✅ Completing projects from start to finish

  • ✅ Asking for help and sharing materials

  • ✅ Cooperating and interacting with peers

Arts and crafts naturally promote patience, flexibility, fine motor coordination, and emotional regulation. ✂️ Kids will practice turn-taking, problem-solving, and independence—all while expressing creativity and making something they can be proud of!
