Stopping only for a quick snack break. Mine came home looking like she had painted a Picasso. The last day is the showcase and it did not disappoint. Their were wands, papier-mâché owls, very cool matted drawings, secret potion bottles, bags and more! The teachers are fun and will inspire your little one's inner artist. This was her favorite camp of the 2020 summer!

At the end of the night, she even left extra supplies for my daughter and her friend to keep painting. You'll be surprised at what you can create with her expertise. My husband and I can barely draw anything, yet we were both thrilled with how our paintings turned out. Every time I see our artwork, it brings a smile to my face. Hope is fantastic, and I look forward to booking her again!

Growing up singing in choirs, I learned very well how to sing as part of a group and sound the same…read moreas everyone else. I learned to match pitch and mimic runs. I learned to understand when to sing loudly and when to sing softly. But I never learned which voice was my own. I never learned how to use what I have already because I was so caught up trying to sound like everyone else, I never embraced my own sound. My thinking has prevented me all this time, from growing as a singer. The ability has been there, the desire has absolutely been there, but with a clouded mind, the greatest of any talents becomes average, at best. Both of my parents were leaders in church, singing traditional black gospel music, filled with soul. Lots of runs, lots of modulations and key and tempo changes, lots of drawn out vowels, extended breath holds, stratosphere-level bridge notes... but most of all, they always had emotion. There was passion that lead them when they sang. I remember saying, "I'll never be able to sing like them, so I hold back a lot because I can't do what they did." In our first session, her reply was simple: "You CAN do it. And you will sing even BETTER than they did." Just to have a positive voice to trust more than my own negative thinking, that alone would be worth my time. But she's taken time to help me understand when to use my full voice vs my falsetto, how to project sound in every range, how to shape notes to match my strongest vowel sounds, how to be willing to make a mistake and learn from it. And whereas I used to refrain from allowing anyone to hear me singing, now, it's common for me to sing out freely at work, at church and everyone else, with little concern for who is listening. I still have lots to learn, but I'm grateful to be learning it in a safe place.

Kelly's Art Shack is a trendy art studio in the middle of Historic Downtown McKinney…read more This kid-friendly space has activities like video games, board games and even cornhole out on the beautiful courtyard (decorated completely by the owner, Kelly, herself) that is attached to the gallery. I loved relaxing here with co-workers in the evening, not to mention that view of the McKinney water tower from the patio at night cannot be beat. I highly recommend coming to see the unique artwork. My favorite piece was a large, canvas painting of "Woodstock '69," so as soon as I saw it, I had to take home the original before there were only prints available. The art is so affordable and better yet, when you purchase one you become an "artster," which comes with membership benefits. I can't wait for the next live music show and I am hoping to attend a paint party soon. I may even try to book this event space for my toddler's birthday party!
