Lake Region News

Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.

Are you looking for the ultimate Christmas gift? Instead of a toy that will break get them an ultimate art experience! Limited to the first 8 children that register.

Looking for a fun way to keep the kids entertained this Winter Break? How about an Ultimate glass blowing and more Art Adventure.

This is not your average art program! It's time to see what your budding artists can create when they have access to non-traditional art experiences. In this 5 day Art Adventure your child will explore glass blowing, glass fusion, pottery painting, resin art, pottery wheel and splatter painting!

This unique blend of experiences gives kids the opportunity to explore artistic mediums that are not typically available in traditional art classes taught in school. Instead of focusing on sketching and painting, we will dive head-first into art forms that will be totally new to most children.

Class is limited to 8 children. We are keeping it small to allow for individual attention.

Register for a full week or just the days that work with your schedule!

A full week of Art Adventure (5 days in a row) is $216 (20% discount)

Single days are $54 each and subject to availability.

Open to Children Ages 7 to 15
