Homeschool Days: 2023-2024

American Masters

Join us monthly as we take a closer look at master artists from America! Ranging from colonial days and classical painting to the birth of modernism in the early twentieth century, students (ages 5-14) will be exposed to a variety of artists, styles, and media. Each 75-minute lesson is interactive and includes a related art activity. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to discover more about our country’s diverse creative heritage!

Parent attendance is optional. Review our FAQs, which cover arrival and even co-op questions.
