It's Elementary! Empowering Youth though Art February Break Events For Kids and Adults!

YogArt is a fun combination of yoga, guided visualization and meditation that provides you with an introspective approach to art and the creative process. Beginning with a mini yoga session to wake up our bodies, you then take part in a guided visualization and meditation activity that will allow you to explore your creative potential. Then, explore the international children’s artwork in It’s Elementary! and create your own inspired work of art.

Three different classes will be offered, with the option of taking one, two or all three classes. Age appropriate: 6 – 17, drop-off program or parents may join in, too.
