Art & Creativity Workshops
In these workshops, we’ll immerse teachers, docents, parent groups, and teams in creativity-boosting art projects. Participants will learn specific ways to incorporate process art into their classroom teaching. Workshops include hands-on art-making, small-group discussions, and take-away materials.
In-person at Your Location
The TinkerLab studio is located in beautiful Palo Alto, CA, about 45 minutes south of San Francisco. Our creative space can accommodate up to ten people.
