The Walter Hive partners with organizations to provide a variety of art classes empowering and inspiring children and teens.

The first Tuesday of every month is the TEEN STEAM night at The Walter Hive.  The Teens of STEAM Club is an evening where we open our doors for any and all teenagers to come and enjoy a safe, empowering learning environment. Every night will feature a different project or introduction to an artistic technique, which will encourage artistic expression and creative problem solving. Walter Hive Teens of STEAM night happens every first Tuesday of the month from 6-8pm, and is totally free for anybody ages 13-18. Pizza will be provided for anybody attending!

ART ACTIVITY WORKSHOPS
Activities with children such as individual weaving looms, talking sticks, metal word stamping, laser cut boxes, and string art, all provide opportunities for personal creative expression with intention.

BLIND PORTRAITURE
In this workshop everyone has the opportunity to create an artistic self portrait by applying the technique of blind contour drawing. This involves drawing outlines while looking at an object or your own reflection and not at the paper. Color is added with watercolor paints. The portraits provide a new perspective on the self and the ease of creative expression.

LASER CUT DESIGN/BUILD
Laser cutters are a tool that allow students to rapidly go from design to finished product. One of our favorite classes to offer due to its empowering nature.

ART THERAPY
Includes a variety of projects to build resilience and recovery with groups who need deeper facilitation. We utilize the instruction of a certified art therapist for all projects.
