Complement your child’s learning experience with a Mad Science after-school program. Our unique approach gives children a fun scientific foundation that goes beyond the classroom. Children engage in hands-on activities, watch spectacular demos, and take home an educational science toy or home activity.

Imagine Arts:
Legends & Lore: Unleashing Creativity through Myths and Mysteries Grades 1-3
From sea creatures of the deep to phoenixes in the sky, every society has its legends and lore. We'll tell their stories through paintings, sculptures, and other works of art. These tales may inspire awe, curiosity, or surprise, but they all inspire our imaginations. Each class is all about designing a one-of-a-kinds mythical creature. Let your imagination soar as you explore myths from diverse cultures and tell your own story.
Spring - Swift River School
ART-ventures in the Rainforest
Head off on a jungle safari! Art adventurers trek through the rainforest, discovering the wondrous and rare creatures that call home. Journey into the world of parrots, jungle cats, snakes, red-eyed tree frogs and more, and experiment with whimsical and original art forms and techniques. Create stained glass tigers, build rockin' rain sticks, paint ceramic turtles, design repoussé reptiles, and sculpt froggy light switch covers. Throughout the voyage art adventurers learn about the importance of saving the rainforest, and pick up super artist survival skills like printmaking, painting, collage, and journaling. They even make their own t-shirts using a unique and unusual oil pastel technique. Surprises and laughter round out this fun-filled art safari. Adventurers return home with awesome works of art each week
