A Giving Tuesday community fundraiser by Columbia Center for the Arts has enabled it to offer 15 full scholarships to children in need of financial assistance to attend an art class this summer. Kids age 4-17 can enjoy a variety of summer children’s art classes in everything from stage production to collage, and mural design and installation to a Dr. Seuss play production. Classes run Monday-Thursday with both morning (9 a.m. to noon) and afternoon (1-4 p.m.) sessions available, with some classes covering two weeks.
