Creating Purposeful Connections! Before and After School
A child’s day doesn’t begin or end when the school bell rings. The hours before and after school offer a powerful opportunity for meaningful engagement, creativity, and personal growth.
Our Before and After Care program is designed to be far more than a place until home time. It is an intentional, flexible space where children acquire tools, explore creativity and practical art skills, whether they join us every day or just as needed. Contact us at artifulgallery@gmail.com to register.

Empowerment meets creativity! Making polymer clay worry stones teaches kids that they have the power to create their own emotional toolkits. Rubbing the smooth thumb indent helps soothe nervous energy, quiet busy thoughts, and bring focus back to the present. A simple craft with a powerful purpose.
