Welcome to Children's Art Lab!

Hello and welcome!  Children's Art Lab is a children's art center located in Mattapoisett, MA, due to open mid-January 2015.  Keep reading to learn more!

Mission Statement 
The Children's Art Lab is a space for children to explore the creative process.  We offer a nurturing environment where children can experiment with materials, get messy, and discover creative methods of self-expression.  Our focus is on child-led, process driven, developmentally appropriate artistic opportunities.

Why an "Art Lab?"
The word "lab" suggest a place for experimentation, which is exactly what artists do in their day to day studio practice.  Instead of merely asking a child to follow directions and create a specific product, we provide the opportunity for a child to "tinker" with materials and come to his or her own discoveries.  We also like the idea that art and science often overlap, from color theory to using natural materials for inspiration.
