Free Summer Art Workshops for Children
June 24 – August 19, 2017
The Loft Artists Association in Stamford invites children ages 7 to 14 to spread their creative wings this summer at a series of art workshops. The fourth annual Summer Art Workshop Program runs from June 24 to August 19 and will feature explorations in clay, robot recyclables, beading, multimedia landscapes, printmaking, nature collage and more — all taught by the LAA’s professional, award-winning artists.
"It’s a great opportunity for children to have a fun and creative experience with a professional artist in an environment where artists create and exhibit their work,” says Co-Executive Director Mark Macrides. “Generous donations from supportive community members make this rich array of workshops possible.”
