NEW TO PLAY?
PLAYDAY is the place for children to experience the joy of making ART in a fun, safe, clean, supportive, and collaborative studio environment.
During PLAYDAY's ART Activities, After School Programs, Camps, Custom Birthday Parties, and Special Events, our super positive highly trained instructors and spacious studios give children the opportunity to discover their creative voice and have fun while they’re doing it.
Making new friends is the added bonus!
PLAYDAY is designed to support children's creative enrichment and imagination through enhanced cognitive development, boosted
self-confidence, and refinement of problem solving skills, all while exemplifying great manners and interpersonal intelligence. Children are encouraged to imagine what they want to do, create projects through playing with tools and materials, share ideas and creations with others, and reflect on their experiences.
We crafted PLAYDAY to be a supportive and encouraging space for children to thrive in and out of our studios.
