Welcome to Art Cart Kids
Hi, I'm Dazzle. Do you
know that a group
of zebra can be called
a Dazzle?
Imagine your child walking into a colorful, welcoming studio, eyes lighting up at the sight of shelves filled with art supplies. A smile grows as the teacher warmly asks, “What would you like to do first?”
At Art Cart Kids, the mission is simple: to make it easy and convenient for your child to explore their imagination through open-ended, child-choice art.
Every class is designed to meet your child where they are—offering the freedom to create, the space to explore, and the joy of discovering new materials at their own pace.
Through Dazzle’s Color Quest, your child is gently guided on a creative journey filled with discovery, movement, and growth. Each session includes a quick, playful 5-minute mini-lesson, so fun, your child won’t even realize they’re learning. They’ll try new materials, pick up new techniques, and move through a vibrant world of color levels, building confidence and skills along the way.
It’s all about making creativity feel natural, fun, and accessible, so your child can express themselves freely, grow as an artist, and feel truly proud of what they create.
And best of all, every step of the journey is celebrated, because your child deserves to feel seen, encouraged, and inspired.

Important Announcement
More Art, Less Cost
Right NowThe world feels uncertain. Prices are rising everywhere. And even if your child doesn’t know exactly why, they feel it, this background hum of adult stress and change. That’s exactly why now, more than ever, children need a creative outlet.A place where imagination can run wild. Where child-choice art gives space for feelings to land. Where problem-solving and critical thinking happen through play. Where it’s safe to just be.
That’s what Art Cart Kids is all about.
And while other prices are going up… ours are going down.
Thanks to several generous donations of art supplies this year, I’ve only had to purchase a few core staples to run camp and I’m passing that savings directly on to you.
Here’s how that looks:
✨ $40 for a 2-hour session (half-day camp)
✨ $200 for 5* days of half-day camp (10 hours of art)
✨ $80 for 4 hours of art (plus a free supervised lunch + outdoor play hour)
✨ $400 for 5* days full-day camp (20 hours of art + free hour of lunch and outdoor play)
And the schedule? It’s still as flexible as ever.
*Students do NOT need to attend 5 days in a row!
You can mix and match the dates and times that work for your family, because life is busy, and art should be easy.
If your child could use a space to breathe, to imagine, to create in their own way, this is it.
Let’s make this summer simple, joyful, and full of imagination.
