K–3
Heart to Art Class
The Blue Bird Art Foundation’s K–3 Heart to Art Class provides young members with a joyful and supportive environment to explore drawing, painting, colors, shapes, and mixed-media projects.
Through creative activities, children learn to express their feelings and ideas, strengthen art dexterity, and connect with others. Heart to Art encourages every child to create from the heart while developing kindness, imagination, and a love for art.
