We believe that everyone deserves to participate in diverse creative programming – and that the arts play a vital role in helping kids grow into confident, happy, empathetic, and successful adults.
youth, teens, & family experiences
Our professional art studios invite young artists to dive deep into ceramics, printmaking, dance and movement, theater, cooking, and fiber arts. We offer something for everyone, and we’re proud to help fill the need for arts programming in our community with after-school arts classes, in-school integrated programs, summer camps, private parties, and queer-focused events and classes.
after-school programs
Our After School Arts and Wellness Program provides a safe space for young artists of Sonoma Valley to socialize, learn and have fun through art, movement and culinary programming. Read more.
summer camps
Summer is a time for discovery and fun! The Community Center’s camps keep your child safe, engaged, and exploring through the arts, all summer long. We offer a variety of innovative experiences for young artists ages 6-17 in theater arts, clay, fine art, fiber and sewing, self-expression, and movie making. Read more.

how we involve the community
in-school programming
We partner with local and national arts organizations including the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art and La Luz to create arts programming that best fills the need in our community. We also offer arts-integration programs at several campuses in the Sonoma Valley, including Dunbar Elementary, Creekside High School, and Sassarini.
queer art club
Join us for a night of self-expression every third Wednesday of the month. We are partnering with Positive Images to provide a safe and inclusive space for teens to find their artistic voice through radical self-expression.
