New: Big Kids Club!
3:30 Wednesdays September 9-December 16th
Taught by experienced educator and artist Anna Welsh and our own Program Director Laura Schirmer, this weekly afterschool club is just for kids aged 5 to 9. We will be making art and inventions using a variety of fun mediums and tools.
Big Kids Club is free for members or with paid admission to The Children’s Playhouse. Because space is limited so registration is recommended. Click here to sign up for the first meeting on September 9th.
Please note this is not a drop off class; parents or caregivers will need to stay on the premises for the duration of the class, but you are welcome to play with sibling in another room, enjoy some of our free Espresso News coffee, or try the art yourself!
