The kids enjoy art and this class allowed them to learn and be with other kids their age with similar values. The girls both enjoyed making clay cups. Overall experience was great!

The girls both learned so much in 6 classes. It is a great introduction for them both about techniques and the variety of art. I think it was a great class, and we are very thankful for Mrs. Buck.

Our daughter loved going to art class each week and I loved hearing about the new techniques she was learning! The times were convenient for us and a great way to get our homeschooler out and about.
