Art Parties

Parties are a blast in The Dreaming Bear Art Studio!!!

There's no better way to enjoy your next birthday or special event! Join us in the colorful Dreaming Bear art studio, and we'll make something wonderful together! All you need to bring is the cake and other refreshments you wish to serve, and we'll provide the great space and fun activities. Your guests will spend approximately 1 ½-2 hours in the studio, with the first hour spent enjoying the activity you have chosen. We will supply the materials and our party host will guide the group through the project. You will have the remaining time to serve refreshments, open presents, and visit with guests. Our party schedule is fairly flexible, but we do ask an advance notice of 2 weeks or more. A minimum of 6 guests is required to reserve a spot for a party.

Check out our list of great party ideas!!!!
