Discover Surrealist Miniatures: Next Up in Our Art After Dark Series
If you're unfamiliar with what a diorama is, let’s break it down: A diorama is a miniature three-dimensional scene where the elements are arranged in a small, confined space, like a tiny stage. Artists create detailed environments that tell a story or capture a moment in time. From landscapes to interiors to surreal dreamscapes, dioramas offer a unique way to express creativity in a highly visual and imaginative format. For this event, we’ll learn about the surrealist style, encouraging our young artists to think outside the box—literally!
What to Expect at "Through the Looking Glass"
This event is all about creating enchanting, surreal worlds in miniature form. We’ll guide participants step-by-step as they create their own dioramas, using a variety of materials to construct their dreamlike landscapes. The surrealist theme will encourage students to think creatively, combining unexpected elements and fantastical scenes that bend the rules of reality.
Young artists can craft anything from floating cities to magical forests or a whimsical scene straight out of their imaginations. The goal is to capture the magic of surrealism, where anything is possible, and creativity knows no bounds.
Why Dioramas?
Dioramas are a fantastic way to hone an artist's eye for detail while working on spatial awareness and composition. They allow young creators to think in three dimensions, constructing not just an image but a fully realized world. This hands-on project also teaches patience and problem-solving, as students will be challenged to arrange tiny elements into a cohesive and visually striking scene.

Announcing our Free Little Art Gallery in Durant Trails!
So, what exactly is a Free Little Art Gallery? It’s a tiny space where people can share their artwork, no matter their level of experience. From budding beginners to seasoned professionals, all kinds of art are welcome. The idea is simple: contribute a piece or take one home. Or, you can just pause to appreciate the creativity on display. Like a Little Free Library offers books to exchange, FLAGs offer art – free for the taking or giving.
The Free Little Art Gallery movement began in 2020, initiated by artist Stacy Milrany in Seattle. Milrany’s vision was to create a space where anyone could participate in art, whether by making it or simply enjoying it. What started with one small gallery has since blossomed into hundreds across the country. These galleries now appear in neighborhoods, outside schools, at art stores, and even in museums, offering a unique way for people to engage with creativity on a personal level.
One of the most special aspects of these galleries is the joy of sharing. There’s something magical about giving away a piece of art you’ve made and knowing that it will brighten someone’s day. Equally, the thrill of finding a small masterpiece in one of these galleries is something that can spark joy in the recipient. It’s an unspoken exchange of kindness and creativity, a reminder of how art can bring people together.
You can find our Free Little Art Gallery at the entrance to the pool in Durant Trails. Feel free to leave your own artwork or take a piece that speaks to you—come and be part of the creativity! In a world that often feels hectic and overwhelming, this is one small, meaningful way to make it a little brighter. Whether you're sharing or discovering art, our Free Little Art Gallery is a wonderful opportunity to spread creativity and brighten the world, one small piece at a time.

Making Children’s Art Classes in Raleigh Accessible for All
Art has always held a special place in human culture, serving as a medium for expression, communication, and innovation. However, throughout history, the opportunity to engage with art has often been reserved for the elite. Financial constraints, gender biases, and racial discrimination have excluded many from the world of art. Fortunately, the times are changing, and we are committed to making art accessible to all children, regardless of their financial status.
How You Can Help
Our scholarship fund is made possible by the generous donations of our supporters. At every checkout, customers now have the opportunity to contribute to this fund. Whether you give a little or a lot, every donation helps us bring the joy of art to more children. Your support can make a significant difference in a child's life, opening doors to creativity and self-expression that might otherwise remain closed.
Join Us
If your family is in need of financial assistance for art classes, we encourage you to apply for our scholarship. Please email raleighkidsartgallery@gmail.com for more information on how to apply. We believe that every child should have the opportunity to participate in children's art classes in Raleigh, regardless of their financial situation.
Together, we can ensure that art is accessible to everyone in our community. Thank you for helping us make a difference in the lives of our young artists. Let's continue to inspire, create, and grow—one masterpiece at a time.

During this class, students will embark on an artistic journey beneath the waves, exploring the vibrant colors and fascinating creatures of the ocean. They'll have the opportunity to create their own underwater masterpieces using various mediums, including painting, drawing, and sculpture.
This class not only provides a break from screens but also immerses children in a rich, sensory experience that stimulates their imagination and creativity. By focusing on the wonders of the sea, we aim to inspire a sense of curiosity and appreciation for the natural world.

The Magic of Returning to Past Projects at Our Art Track Out Camps
In the realm of creativity, there's an often-overlooked aspect that holds immense value: the ability to revisit past projects. At Raleigh Kids Art Gallery art track out camps, we don't just encourage this; we intentionally create a space where children can freely return to their earlier creations. Why? Because we believe that revisiting past work isn't just about nostalgia; it's about nurturing creativity and fostering a sense of growth and accomplishment in young minds.
Here's a glimpse into why and how we cultivate this practice at our camps:
Embracing the Journey:
Creativity is a journey, not a destination. When children are encouraged to revisit their past projects, they're reminded that creativity is not just about the end result but also about the process. By revisiting their earlier creations, they see how far they've come, the skills they've developed, and the ideas they've explored. This fosters a sense of pride and accomplishment, boosting their confidence to embark on new creative endeavors.
Fostering Iteration and Improvement:
Returning to past projects allows children to see their work with fresh eyes. They might notice areas where they can improve or new ideas to explore. This iterative process is fundamental to the creative journey. By encouraging children to iterate on their past creations, we empower them to refine their skills and develop their unique artistic voice.
Building a Creative Community:
Our art track out camps are not just about individual expression; they're also about building a supportive creative community. When children revisit their past projects, they have the opportunity to share their journey with others. They can exchange ideas, offer feedback, and collaborate on new projects inspired by their earlier work. This sense of community fosters a collaborative spirit and encourages children to celebrate each other's successes.
Nurturing Creative Resilience:
Creativity is not always smooth sailing; it involves facing challenges and overcoming setbacks. By encouraging children to revisit past projects, we teach them resilience in the face of creative obstacles. They learn that failure is not the end but rather a stepping stone to growth and innovation. This resilience is a valuable life skill that extends far beyond the realm of art.
Encouraging Reflection and Appreciation:
Returning to past projects provides an opportunity for reflection and appreciation. Children can reflect on the inspiration behind their earlier work, the techniques they used, and the emotions they expressed. This reflection deepens their connection to their art and cultivates an appreciation for the creative process itself.
At our art track out camps, we believe that creativity knows no bounds. By intentionally creating a space where children can freely return to past projects, we empower them to embrace the journey of creativity, foster iteration and improvement, build a supportive community, nurture resilience, and encourage reflection and appreciation. Through this practice, we hope to ignite a lifelong passion for creativity and self-expression in every child who walks through our doors. Join us in celebrating the magic of returning to past projects and watch as creativity flourishes in all its forms.
Being an Art Detective
What is an art detective?
“Elementary, my dear Watson”
Embodying an art detective is a really fun and engaging way for us to think critically about art. Oh, and did we mention that at Raleigh Kids Art Gallery, it’s fun?? We make this time special. First, I put on my trench coat and detective hat, grab my magnifying glass, and turn on the Pink Panther theme song. Next, we pass around the magnifying glass to ask or answer questions about the piece we are looking at that day. Sometimes we use prompt questions based on our question dice, and other times, we sit with the artwork and come up with our own questions. Some days, we do both!
What questions do we ask?
We are all pretty familiar with question words: Who, What, Why, Where, When, and How. But how do we use those question words when talking about art? Really the sky's the limit, but here are some examples.
Who is the artist?
What do I feel when I look at the art?
Why was it made?
Where is the artist from?
When was this piece made?
How would I describe this artwork to my best friend?
BONUS QUESTIONS: Do I like it? If I could climb in this artwork, what would I feel, smell, hear, etc.
Compare and contrast:
A few times, we have made Venn diagrams to compare and contrast different artists, artwork, or artistic genres. One of my favorite side-by-side comparisons has been Jen Stark and Piet Mondrian. I really only ask what do we see that’s the same and what do we see that’s different. Kids never cease to amaze me with their insight and what they see that adults sometimes don’t!
Case Files:
Can I do this at home? The answer is a resounding YES! You can play games, ask questions, or even set up an art detective center in your home! All you need are some art prints, the questions dice or list, and maybe a magnifying glass for fun. With any art deck, you may want to double check that you feel comfortable with each print as a lot of classical art features nudity. As a note, none of these links benefit me in any way. I just want to share some of my favorite art detective resources. Let me know which one you try!

Embracing the role of an art detective transcends mere observation; it becomes a dynamic engagement with creativity. At Raleigh Kids Art Gallery, the experience is not only educational but imbued with joy and excitement. Equipped with a detective's gear and fueled by curiosity, children delve into the world of art armed with questions. From deciphering an artist's motivations to exploring personal reactions, every query unlocks a new perspective. Through comparisons, discussions, and playful exploration, young art enthusiasts uncover the nuances of expression and develop a deeper appreciation for artistic diversity. As they navigate through case files and embark on artistic adventures, the journey of discovery extends beyond the gallery walls, inviting them to cultivate their detective skills at home. With resources ranging from interactive games to thought-provoking question sets, the pursuit of art becomes an endless quest for insight and inspiration. So, don your detective hat and join the investigation – because in the world of art, every stroke tells a story waiting to be unraveled.

Think Like an Artist
I really love this quote by Elbert Hubbard, but I don’t necessarily agree with it. Or, well, maybe I should say I don’t think it’s expansive enough. Art is a process, Art is something that is created, and Art is a way of thinking. Read on to learn how we help children “think like an artist” every day during our track out art camps and classes.
Art often starts with an idea, but what even is an idea and how do we turn that idea into art? These big questions are the foundation for thinking like an artist. A few of the topics I focus on to grow creativity and problem solving in the classroom are brainstorming, researching, troubleshooting, and collaborating.
Brainstorm: “I don’t know what to make!”
When a student says they don’t know what to make, I usually ask what they like or are interested in that day and what materials they’re feeling drawn to. Nine times out of ten, they’ll yell “OH!” and go gather the supplies to start their project.
Some days, however, a student may need a little more direction. We all have days like this, even professional artists! One tool we use in this circumstance is a random idea generator. I have different baggies filled with idea cards titled color, season, subject (animal, tv show/video game/book character, fairy, etc.), location (mountains, ocean, forest, outerspace, etc.), and action (reading, playing an instrument, eating, etc.). They will draw from each baggy and lay out what they get. Maybe they get white winter fairy snowboarding in the mountains. Or maybe it’s a pink panda having a picnic in outer space! Whatever it is, they can choose to use those themes or draw others to make a different theme. More often than not, the cards serve as a springboard for original ideas!
Research: “I have an idea, but what now?”
Our next step is research. I include planning in this category as they tend to go hand in hand for me. This process looks different from student to student, but often includes looking at work made by professional artists, doing mini sketches of elements they want to include in their project, or looking for the colors and materials they want to use.
Troubleshoot: “This isn’t going the way I’d hoped.”
Troubleshooting is defined as discovering why something does not work effectively and making suggestions about how to improve it. What a vital and versatile skill to build! What do we do when our project isn’t turning out the way we’d imagined and planned? What happens when glue or paint gets spilled on your project? How do we fix our project if it won’t stand up properly, the color isn’t right, or the whole thing just feels off? Practically speaking, I usually start by complimenting their work because, I mean, have I mentioned how much I love kid art?? Then I ask what they don’t like or what they feel like is not going well. That usually leads to more conversation and sometimes suggestions. Sometimes we step away for a snack and come back with fresh eyes!
This is a skill that extends outside of the art classroom! Practicing troubleshooting can help kids think through the next steps of their tricky homework or what to do if they spill cereal on the kitchen floor.
Collaborate: “Should I make this out of clay or paper?”
I cannot tell you how many times a child has asked me a question like this and another student answers instead. I’ve found that kids love to teach and help each other. As often as possible, I sit back and let the kids help each other. Pablo Picasso and George Braque are excellent examples of artistic collaboration: together, they created Cubism! They worked together, learned from each other, and were better artists because of it.
Choice-Based Art
At Raleigh Kids Art Gallery, we value choice-based art. Read on to learn about the differences between limited, moderate and abundant choices in the art classroom and why we do what we do!
Hi there! This blog will be the place where I’ll talk about a variety of art topics. Today I’d like to talk a little about artistic choices in the classroom AKA choice-based art.
“Allowing choice” or “choice based education” are terms that you may or may not have heard in regard to art education. Those terms might conjure up ideas of finger painting on walls or intentionally getting messy.
But what does “choice-based art” really mean? Overall, choice-based art values the product AND the process equally. There is a full spectrum of how much choice is utilized in any given classroom. Each one of these styles have a purpose and none of them are right or wrong!
Limited Choice:
Some art teachers prefer to have limited choice in the classroom. This often looks like having a set project with the subject and materials preset or extremely limited.
Moderate Choice:
A moderate choice classroom has more choice and could look like giving the students a theme, but allowing them to choose the materials and subject.
Abundant Choice:
An abundant choice classroom is mostly or entirely learner-led, with the educator supporting that learning with technical demonstrations and well organized centers.
Students Have Moderate to Abundant Choice at Raleigh Kids Art Gallery
Personally, and for camps, I like to switch it up, but lean towards moderate to abundant choice. Some days, we have set projects utilizing specific materials, but each learner picks the colors and composition for that project. On these days, we learn about individual artists and utilize aspects of their art and make it our own.
Other days, I have less parameters, but add maybe one or two limitations. For example, they can pick their own subject, materials, and colors, but it has to be a 3D project. And other days still, it is entirely learner-based. They design their own project and complete it with whatever materials they want to use. I am there to help brainstorm ideas, troubleshoot problems, and encourage creativity. I hot glue A LOT on these days!
Each amount of choice has a purpose and encourages creativity and agility, while also building technical skills. This type of critical yet creative thinking has real world applications while remaining accessible and FUN! If you want your child to value the process just as much as they value the final product, contact me today to determine the best way to reach your child. Whether in afterschool art class, trackout art camps, or teacher work day camps, I am confident we can find a way to teach your child to explore their creative side in a whole new way!

Welcome to the Raleigh Kids blog!
I’m thrilled to embark on this creative journey with you all. Too often, our kids learn to be guarded and hesitate because they fear imperfections. But here, we’ll embrace so-called imperfections as a beautiful part of the creative process.
We will delve into various art forms, learning from their significance, art history, and the impact on the artistic world.
Thank you for joining me on this adventure. I’m so glad you’re here!
