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.

Pencil Pom Poms

With a little bit of yarn and a couple of googly eyes, kids create a cute, puffy pom pom to sit atop their pencil! Homework has never been such fun!

Silly Beads

Strengthen creativity and fine motor skills while having a ball! Using pony beads and pipe cleaners, children will make a colorful spring flower that is beautiful and fun for everyone.

Throwin Mud

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.
