Calling all artists! Join us for an afternoon of art history fun, where you can learn about different artists and new art skills and techniques!

We offer two Art Exploration sessions each month so that even more artists can participate.

In February, we will explore the life of African American artist Lois Mailou Jones who created rhythmic and thought-invoking art with inspiration from Caribbean, African, and even Egyptian cultures. 

Please register each child attending separately and only register for one session each month, as Wednesday and Thursday will be the same. 

Please email Laura Johnson at ljohnson@ccplonline.org with any questions.
