Picassos on the Gogh with Heather

Between the Art LEGO sets and these adorable Mini Brand Create Creation Masterpiece sets, these companies have got this art teacher hooked on their products. Putting together these little canvases is fun, you actually have to “stretch” the canvas onto little stretcher frames. These Mini Brand sets are marketed for kids, and think it’s a genius way to introduce kids to art history 🩷

In case you’re curious about my “day job” and why I can only offer art classes and parties on the weekends during the school year…

Meet Heather Mekelburg—now bringing her creative magic to the art room as our Lower School Art Teacher! 🎨🖌️
Heather has been part of the CBA staff, but this year she’s inspiring PreK–3rd grade students to create boldly and think curiously. 💡
She’s a Ravenclaw, a rock collector, and a national park explorer with two different colored eyes! 🪨🏞️👀
We’re so excited for what she’ll bring to CBA’s youngest artists!
