About Us

Our Mission

At Mindful Masterpieces with Melissa, we are dedicated to promoting the arts and fostering creativity in our community. Our mission is to provide accessible art experiences that enrich and inspire both children and adults.

How is this different?

Move over macaroni necklace, this Fine Art class aims to expose young children to famous artists and artworks of all kinds; expose them to names and art terms; give them preliminary information about each work so that when they see it again later in life, the child will have a memory or a recollection of the artwork to build on. Each class will learn to recreate the "inspiration" piece and examine how we can relate to it which is the mindful part... sometimes that can get REALLY interesting with preschoolers!

What we offer

During each hour-long lesson, the children learn how to recreate the masterpiece while practicing techniques benefiting fine motor, directional brushstrokes, and listening skills. Mindful connections to art and one another is at the core of our classes.  This successful program was created specifically for young children and preschoolers with their unique attention spans in mind. We have Yoga/movement breaks, songs, and small groups for individualized attention, private lessons, and professional development. Bring us to your next gathering for a truly unique, fun experience.
