Imagination in Motion

"Imagination in Motion" is Kentuck's brand new early education initiative for children aged 6 months to 5 years. Combining visual art, storytelling, music, and movement, this program will immerse children and their parents in several different art forms in one class, allowing for creative exploration while developing language, reading, motor, and spatial reasoning skills. Aprons will be provided for adult participants, but children should dress for mess! 
 This class meets weekly on Wednesday mornings from 10:30am-11:15am at Kentuck at Queen City, 1901 Jack Warner Parkway, Tuscaloosa. There is a maximum of 10 child participants per session. Registration includes both the child and their parent or caregiver. Each parent or caregiver must attend and participate with their child for the full session.
This class is intended for children aged from 6 months to 5 years. Children ages 5 and up can participate in Kentuck's Kids Studios on Saturdays and in After School Art on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons.
