Program
Read and Build: Home
Drop in any time between 9am and 12pm for a morning of making and storytelling, with multiple readings of "Home" by Carson Ellis. Together we'll learn about different types of homes, then design and build your own dream home using studio materials.
Read and Build is an exciting monthly program for you and your young children (ages 3-6). Spend time together listening to a story and creating an art project. We’ll help your little ones explore the building blocks of architecture, design and our city. We share a new story every month, so you can come again and again to work with others and build something amazing.
Please review the latest COVID-19 Safety Policies.
