Celebrations Brochure.

Not Just Art Parties are a
creative way to celebrate birthdays and other special occasions
with family and friends.
Birthdays are special celebrations that children look forward to for days, weeks, even
months! Not Just Art’s relaxed,
child-friendly environment and
approach accommodates a wide
range of ages and needs. We’ve
carefully selected open-ended
projects and activities that are
designed to make sure all children will feel successful.
Alternate activity choices are
readily available for younger
and older siblings, or guests who
choose not to try the main projects. At Not Just Art, all children
are included and encouraged to
feel comfortable and enjoy their
experience here.
Not Just Art can plan studio times
and/or off-site art events for
scout troops, school and homeschool groups, and children’s
clubs. Please call us for more information regarding your group’s
specific needs.
