Three years ago I attended my first ever Wall Ball; Wall Ball is the large annual fundraiser for…read moreSCOSAG, it was where I first learned about SCOSAG, and it is one of the best fundraising events in St. Louis. They have hundreds of artists create pieces live in front of you throughout the event and then they auction off the pieces to fund the studio. I was immediately intrigued and addicted. We have been every year since. Since that first event, St. Louis City Open Studios and Gallery has become one of my top "kid friendly" places in this city. They offer fun and educational art-centered classes for kids as well as open studio hours six days a week. Your "little" can learn how to throw some clay onto a wheel, string their own necklace, or illustrate their own book. My personal favorite is the kid and me class on Saturday afternoons. For one hundred bucks you get six weeks of uninterrupted quality family time with all of the art supplies as well as an art instructor provided. Who knows...you may have given birth to the next Picasso and never have known it with all that time they spend on the Wii. I am all for getting out and getting hands on and SCOSAG provides the perfect environment for good ole fashion fun. Love Live Creativity!

It truly is a playground for kids young and not so young. Playing there reminds me of when I was a young kid making mud pies - I now remember how much fun it was to squish the mud and water in my hands till it held its shape and then patting the "dough" into a form and finishing with "sprinkles" and then baking my cake in the sun. I love that I can still do that at the LampLight! I'm new to throwing clay pots and at my first time at the LampLight, I was surprised that it wasn't as easy as it looks, even with the fine equipment. However, the instructor was very knowledgeable and patient with me and now I can get my bowl to stay upright and not go all wobbly :) The LampLight Studio is definitely worthy - SUPERWORTHY in fact!
