Headwaters Music and Arts announces its latest preschool art program to begin mid February. Lil Artist is for children ages 2.5-5 and their adult guardian and is a total of 8 sessions. The popular program is led by local artist and Headwaters art instructor Maranda Stauffacher. Maranda and her class will explore the elements of art such as color, texture, pattern, shapes and more! Interested families have two weekly options to choose from with either the weekday Tuesday block held 2:30-3:15 pm or the weekend Saturday black held 10-10:45 am. Participants can expect fun and messy art projects that will introduce pre-k children to the basics of art while exploring age-appropriate media.
Maranda is a visual artist and art instructor. She studied Theatre And Communication Arts at Bemidji State University and is a renaissance woman when it comes to creative endeavors. She specializes in fiber and loves to sew. Maranda has been a Headwaters art instructor since 2022 and is currently the lead instructor for the k-2 Art Club.

Headwaters offers financial assistance options for all of its youth programming to ensure accessibility for all. Space for the program is limited, advance registration is required.
