Register for class online on the Sawyer web app. Plan to arrive 5-10 minutes before class starts to get checked in. We’ll have aprons, but make sure you dress your child in paint friendly clothes! As parents are also in the studio with their child, we also recommend you wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little messy.
Note: preregistration for class is required. We close our booking window one hour before class starts to give instructors enough time to prepare for class. If no one is registered an hour before class, the class is cancelled. -
Check in at the front desk. Once the teacher is ready and the studio door is open, your child is welcome to get started! There will be a space for you and your child to leave their things.
Parents are welcome to grab a coffee from our latte bar or a drip coffee. We’ll also have a shared library for you to grab a book if you’d like. Or, you’re welcome to play alongside your kiddo!

During class, your child will be able to explore all of the different stations. We ask that you keep eyes on your child to ensure their safety, but they are welcome to explore each station how they see fit (meaning, you don’t have to show them everything…just see what they do!).
We do encourage parents to intervene if their child is throwing things or interfering in the space of another child. We will also have an instructor in the room at all times.
After class, clean up is ON US (seriously, you don’t have to do anything). We’ll have a station as you leave the studio for your child to wipe their hands off as well as a sink station.
FAQs
I’VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE. HOW DOES IT WORK?
We’re an art studio that focuses on process art. You can drop in during our drop-in hours to make one of our drop in crafts, join scheduled classes for kids, or attend adult workshops. We focus on process art, which means there's no pressure to make something specific or "correct"—you experiment with materials and techniques to see what happens. All supplies are provided, so you don't need to buy your own art materials or worry about waste.
In our signature kids classes, we create different art experiences that engage different skill sets and encourage creativity and decision making. Kids are welcome to use the materials available to them to trust their instinct and intuition, building a confidence with their own creativity that will continue to set them up for success as they get older. From wall painting to sensory play, each class is designed to give kids full creative control without the worry of messing something up.
What should my child wear?
We recommend wearing clothes that you’re okay with your child getting paint on. We provide aprons, but sometimes the kids aren’t vibing with them (it happens!). All of our paint and materials are washable and non-toxic. However, we still wouldn’t recommend wearing your Sunday best.
Can i come in and book a class?
You definitely can! However, we recommend booking in advance so you can ensure that you have a spot in class. We also cancel class one hour before if there are no registrations. Registering guarantees your spot. If you do walk in, make sure you verify the class is on the schedule.
CAN I BRING SNACKS INTO THE STUDIO?
For birthday parties and private events, you are welcome to bring your own food and drinks. For regular classes, you may bring snacks but please be conscientious that other children may have allergies when choosing the snacks that you bring.
I have a two year old and a four year old. Can they come to the same class?
Yes! We try our best to split up classes based on developmental appropriateness. However, if you have two kids, it doesn’t make much sense to bring them at different times!
DO you HAVE THINGS FOR ADULTS?
Yes! We have regular events and drop-in crafting that are both great for adults. We also have private lessons. We’re continuing to build up our offerings for adults!
