ARTSTOP CHILDREN’S AREA
Canvas Classics
Paint a colorful masterpiece, like Picasso, in Canvas Classics. Kids are invited to paint with a brush on a real canvas propped on an easel with an array of colorful paints.
Clay Play
The bright polymer clay fosters creativity and improves motor skills while being fun and easy! Kids can pound, mold, or roll their clay into a colorful sculpture, a key chain, or whatever else they can imagine.

Crazy Cool Caps
Get ready for the Kentucky Derby! Using bright colors and a playful mix of pom poms, feathers, pipe cleaners, and sparkly jewels, young creators can craft a hat that’s as bold, whimsical, fancy, or funny as they like.
.
Fancy Flutters
Even the littlest artists can shine with this colorful craft! Kids will create butterfly-shaped suncatchers using bright tissue paper, sticky contact paper, and a bit of yarn. Hang them up and watch the sunlight bring their wings to life! Simple, fun, and perfect for young children.
Puppet Playhouse
Kids (and kids at heart) can transform simple wooden spoons into delightful, one-of-a-kind puppets bursting with personality. With a colorful mix of yarn for hair, googly eyes, bows and ribbons, and sparkly jewels, every puppet becomes a tiny masterpiece.
Throwin’ Mud
It’s okay for kids to play in the mud at Throwin’ Mud, an activity station guided by ArtStop’s own master potters. Kids will learn to throw a pot or form a vase on a real potter’s wheel.
