Bea had so much fun in your class. We’ve been really covid conscious so that was the first indoor thing we’ve done. Watching her smile and dance melted my heart and she’s still talking about it. Thank you for providing so much fun in a safe environment.

Gordon’s Group (Parent/Child Art Class)

Miss Elissa will provide art project supplies for the children to work on with minimal parent assistance. The goal is process over product as the little ones explore different art mediums. Adding nature items collected around the park to projects is always encouraged. If children finish early or need to gravitate between activities, there will be books, puzzles, and open-ended toys. This is an hour long class in Franklin Park (big grassy area next to Franklin Public Library). Gordon’s Group is in honor of Miss Elissa’s son, Gordon Edward 1/12/23-1/20/23, who could’ve been a playful artist. A portion of the proceeds will be used to make “Gordon’s Goodies” bags to support  families in the Royal Oak Beaumont NICU.
