ArtSparks is a new program for parents and preschool-age kids that promotes the development of cognition, language, motor and social/emotional skills in young children through art projects and play.

Laumeier Sculpture Park's multi-generational Parent & Child workshops are a wonderful way for family members to spend quality and creative time together. Children - along with a parent, grandparent or caregiver - explore new artistic media, develop a meaningful bond and create memories to last a lifetime. One registration includes one adult and one child.

Kids ages 6 and up can learn about lizards, such as: What do they eat? Do lizards really lose their tails? They'll also take part in fun lizard activities and crafts.
