Little artists can get in touch with their creative side with these art programs for kids in Westchester. Local community organizations, art centers, schools and studios have adapted their programming for the pandemic and are offering both in person and online instruction. You can register for a small group studio class, schedule a private class at your home or register for a virtual workshop. Some places are even delivering supply kits!

Why are art classes a good idea? Art can help kids develop their creativity, fine motor skills, problem solving ability and communication skills. Art can foster existing skills and teach new ones. It also helps kids learn to focus and persevere. And last but not least, art classes can keep kids engaged, inspired and busy during these pandemic winter months.

So what are are you waiting for? Whether you have a tween who is passionate about painting or a preschooler who loves making slime, check out this list of local art schools and more in Westchester.

Calling all creative minds! As Coronavirus cases are rising and school breaks (or possibly closures) are coming, it is time to take advantage of virtual activities again. Westchester County has a ton of local art studios and centers that offer to-go projects as well as online classes, workshops, videos and camps. So if your child likes comics, pottery, drawing, coding or painting, this list is for you. 

It is really important that we support our local businesses so that they survive this tumultuous time. Sadly, some have already closed their doors. Now is the time to take advantage of our local experts and artists— their creativity and talent is at your fingertips. You can register for a class, view free resources or purchase to-go projects (a great holiday gift idea).
