Powered by GoogleWe have done 2 of the art camps so far and now my kids are begging to be signed up for the spring sessions. I have a 7 and 9 year old and both had a fabulous time at Make for Joy. The space is darling - super colorful and inviting. My kids are each very different, but were both equally engaged during all the camp sessions. They were beyond thrilled to pick up and reveal their creations to us. We will definitely be back!
My daughter cannot wait until art class each week. She has had so much fun learning amazing techniques such as felting, weaving, blocking, pottery, painting. Allison also exposes the students to an artist in each technique so not only are they having fun doing they are also learning about art. Allison is so patient when teaching the students and we just LOVE her classes and camps!
My 10 year old daughter had the delight of going to not one...but three of teacher Allison's classes last summer. It was one of the highlights of her summer. Allison is the best mix of educational, fun, skill and creative genius all mixed into one. My daughter came away with an educational art experience, CUTE finished projects, and new friends. Allison is just great with kids, she is a gifted artist and makes her students feel seen and special. We will for sure be including time in Make for Joy classes this next summer. Thank you Allison for all you do for your community and our kids!
Make For Joy Art Classes & Camps have been a fantastic addition to Walla Walla! Our duaghters LOVE the teacher, Allison. She shares the coolest projects with the kids and has a true teaching talent. Our girls thoroughly enjoy her weekly classes and camps, and are especially looking forward to the 2022 summer camps Make For Joy will be offering.
I cannot recommend these classes highly enough, my 8 year old daughter absolutely loves them! She has attended a number of classes/camps and each one is unique. A great after school or school holiday activity that stimulates creativity and keeps them away from the screen! Added bonus: art for home/office/gifts!
