Update: 12/5/2024
20 years and Going strong!
This has been a very special year for me, my staff and our students and their families. February 2, 2004 I had the thrill of opening the door to a new location for my art classes. Twenty years of sharing our devotion and expertise!
Time passes way too fast, bringing all sorts of changes in interests and needs to stay relevant. That has always been a priority and consideration for our families with interest in the visual arts and various crafts. We have followed trends and created our own novel subjects, always communicating with our clients. As a result, these relationships have lasted and then extended into their next generations. We are now blessed to have my former students here with there own children who are enjoying our classes!
I have always followed my heart and intuition as it led me down the path to meeting the needs of a steadily growing desire to help the disabled. It’s our pleasure to aid and inspire these students. As a result, we have had to limit the classes for typical kids & teens to be held on Saturdays, leaving the other days for adults with special needs. I deeply appreciate the support and understanding from all of our new and long term clients. Most of all, I am so proud of my staff for providing their passion for art and even more, for their dedication to our students and their families!
Most sincerely, Marlene Bohnyak

FRIDAY GROUP CLASSES FOR ADULTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
OUR ORIGINAL OBJECTIVE WAS TO CREATE A WEEKLY SOCIAL GROUP WHERE WE WOULD ENCOURAGE AND START CONVERSATIONS IN AN INFORMAL SETTING FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THESE OPPORTUNITIES AND SOCIAL SKILLS. THESE CLASSES WERE SO SUCCESSFUL THAT THEY HAVE GROWN AND ARE VERY APPREICIATED BY THEIR PARENTS.
OUR CLASSES WILL OFFER 2 - 4 HOURS OF CREATIVITY THAT MATCH OUR STUDENTS’ INTERESTS, IMPROVE THEIR SKILLS, INCREASE SELF ESTEEM AND PRIDE IN THEIR ARTWORKS WHILE HAVING FUN.
