Le u pu som r u o ar i y

It’s made of clay!

Tell us what your kiddo is interested in and we’ll plan a party that’s sure to please. From princess jewelry to Minecraft paper art to clay ocean creatures, a skilled instructor will provide all the art materials and an hour of guidance so every child can make and take a 2-D or 3-D work of art fueled by his or her imagination. The second hour of the party celebrates the guest of honor so bring on the cake, the party favors, the presents! We’ll even take the party outdoors if weather allows (it is Central Oregon, after all!)

The happiest birthdays happen at Art Station and parties start at just $150 for 10 kids. For more information, please contact, Art Station at 541-617-1317.

our purpose Arts Central’s purpose is two-fold; to cultivate creative minds by making the arts accessible to all and to bring the arts into all aspects of community life.

Doing so provides an exciting new way of observing, interpreting and experiencing the world. This fresh perspective nurtures innovative problem solving and enriches all aspects of our lives. That is why we provide arts education services to individuals, schools and nonprofits throughout the region. We also collaborate with businesses and city governments to bring the arts into every facet of our region. Because the arts are essential to a healthy, vibrant community and when a strong creative economy exists, we all benefit.
