Craft Alliance

At Free Family Saturdays at Craft Alliance, families create together in each of the Craft Alliance studios, exploring clay, fiber, metals and graphic arts. These free workshops are led by professional artists and are for families with kids ages 5 and up. They are open to the public and all family structures are welcome. Please dress for a fun and sometimes messy art experience!

Bring the whole family for hands-on fun at the MADE STL/Delmar Maker District Block Party.

Craft Alliance welcomes all St. Louis area families for Emerson Family Studios, a free Saturday morning craft workshop for kids ages 5 and up with their parents and caregivers.

First Fridays in Grand Center are an opportunity for families to enjoy the latest art exhibitions from some of St. Louis' leading arts organizations for free.

The Academy of Nature and Wildlife Arts invites ages 3 and up to come paint outdoors in Queeny Park. Come out and see professional artists at work, get inspired, and let youthful creativity flow onto a canvas.

Watch professional artists demonstrate their craft and make some art yourself at this free event in The Delmar Loop.
