Youth Vacation Arts & Crafts: Watercolor Painting with Salt CANX


7/15/2026 from 10:00 AM to 1:30 PM ET

FOR THE FULL LIST OF YOUTH VACATION ARTS & CRAFTS CLASSES IN JULY CLICK HERE.

Looking for something fun, creative, and educational to offer your child during the upcoming school vacation?  Makers Mill is offering maker workshops for youth aged 7-13, Monday - Friday, in July.  Come to as many classes as you’d like; just be sure to pre-register as they are limited to 6 students. Materials are included for each class.

There will be time in each class for students to take a break, so they should bring their own lunch/snack and drink in a sealable container.

Each youth will require their responsible adult to sign our Youth Waiver at the beginning of their first class unless we already have their waiver on file.  This is a one-time requirement.

Discover the magic of watercolor painting with salt in this super fun art class! Young artists will create colorful watercolor paintings and then sprinkle salt onto the wet paint to produce amazing textures and patterns that seem to grow right before their eyes.

Experiment with color blending, watch fascinating crystal-like effects appear, and create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Perfect for ages 7–13, this class combines art and a little bit of science for a creative experience full of surprises!

Each youth will require their responsible adult to sign our Youth Waiver at the beginning of their first class unless we already have their waiver on file.  This is a one-time requirement.
