Moms! Dads! Grandparents! Nannies! Next month we have two opportunities to get out of the house and create some treasured memories (and art!) with your kiddos. Sign up at the link in our bio!

Preschoolers (ages 2-4) and the grownups they love will join in low-stress, touch-focused, open-ended art and music activities. Pique your little one's curiosity, promote independence, and exercise fine motor skills through singing, play, and process art. Leave with special memories, and the knowledge of how to recreate similar experiences at home using everyday materials.

Spots are limited to make sure everyone has the space they need. One grownup attends for free with each child's ticket!

Stop using random food wrappers as bookmarks and make something special to hold your place while you read. We have plenty of supplies that are perfect for making personalized bookmarks. Stop in any time on Sunday, August 23rd and pay what you want to make your own. Make a bookmark for your book club read! Bring your bff and make one for each other! Make one for every subject at school!

As always with our Pay-What-You-Want stations:
STEP 1: pay what you want at the register
STEP 2: Use your creativity and our curated materials to make as many bookmarks as you want
STEP 3: please limit your time to one hour and tidy up after yourself to make room for the next crafter!

Join us for our very first WIP & Watch with VisArt Video & Cafe! Bring any Work in Progress—crochet, junk journaling, wooden model dinosaur kit, whatever you’re making—and craft while we watch Spirited Away together.

We’ll keep the lights on so you can see your project and enjoy the movie. Tables and a few basic supplies will be available, but this isn’t a class—you bring your own craft and hang out with cool creative people.
