Classes are designed for
children with developmental disabilities, but are open to all children who like
art! The classes are offered under the
direction of an Occupational Therapist/K-12 Art Teacher. Children must have a
developmental level of at least 7 years old.
Children must be able to function in a small classroom setting, with
individualized 1-2 (adult to student) ratio.
The classes are held on the first Saturday of each month in New Bern and
the second Saturday of the month in Bayboro.
