OPEN ART STUDIO at the Library Friday afternoon 3-5 pm
The last Open Art Studio was a fun and successful afternoon event, come join us this Friday.
An Open Art Studio format is a flexible structure for the use of art media that invites a wide range of ages to engage with materials together in their own individual way. This structure allows for a flow of participants into and out of a collective "studio". Kids can visit, observe, or choose to make art with selected materials. An art therapist serves to facilitate participation as they feel comfortable.
Participants will be guided with predictable routines and expectations for safe, independent and productive use of art media in the setting. They will be supported in engaging verbally and non-verbally throughout the process that provides the necessary conditions to practice self-regulation, build executive function and communication skills while expressing themselves with their chosen materials.
The studio serves ages 3-13 and will take place on March 18 and April 1 and will run from 3:00-5:00 pm at the Lincoln Library. Come when you can, materials, smocks and snacks provided.

This program is supported by grant funds from the Five Town Friends of the Arts.
