Send your young artist to the Violet Hive Open Heart Art Studio. This is an intentionally created space for your child to make art and be themselves. The studio will be held and supported by licensed Art Therapists and Masters level interns.

The studio will involve a variety of materials (painting, fiber arts, collage, 3-D Junk Art and more) to learn expression, provide regulation and skill building around challenges. The conversation will be for open-minded or like-minded kids experiencing nontraditional personal or family structures.
