Workshops and Programs
These workshops are hosted by local artists and the friendly Creativity Lab staff to give visitors a chance to dive deeper into specific themes, mediums, or techniques. Programs may require registration and/or fees.
Scheduled Group Programs
K–12 classes and other groups can schedule a Creativity Labs visit for a hands-on activity rooted in reflection, discovery, and play. Customized to meet your group’s interests and abilities, activities explore a variety of themes, materials and mediums, art-making processes, and modes of expression. Consider pairing your guided or self-guided visit with a Creativity Labs activity to deepen engagement through this tactile making experience.
There are two Creativity Labs. Each Lab can accommodate up to 24 students. Activities last for 30 to 60 minutes.
Group visits to the Creativity Labs must be scheduled at least four weeks in advance. Fees are waived for school groups during the academic year.

Activities in the Creativity Labs are made possible in part by support from the IV Fund.
