Painting to Music: Kids Movies

Spend an hour painting along to music! A space to explore and freely express how music makes you feel. Each session will feature a different type of music. This session will feature music from some classic and current favorite animated movies. Participants will focus on responding to the music played and could register for different sessions to explore the effects of different genres on their creations. All emphasis will be on creative expression, not on creating a finalized work of art. All supplies are included. This class is open to all ages and accommodations will be made to allow young ones under 5 a way to express themselves. Participants under 10 will need to be accompanied by an adult. If you and your child would like to both participate, two tickets must be purchased. There is a minimum of 5 participants and a maximum of 16. If the minimum is not met, participants will be refunded.  About Molly Nelko: A native of Mobile, AL, Molly Nelko has joined Kentuck’s staff as our Programming Assistant!
