Bring The Art Truck to your preschool for a fun, hands-on learning activity your children will love. Kids can create unique works of art and learn valuable skills that will help them in kindergarten and beyond.

With a preschool masquerade program, kids can create their very own masks. Preschoolers can transform themselves into insects, animals, other people, or anything else they can imagine. We will provide pre-cut masks, glitter, paper, faux fur, ribbons, and other materials so kids can decorate their masks however they want. Then they can act out stories in character.

Our preschool paint bar program can teach kids all about colors as they experiment with neon, metallic, pastel, and bright colored paints. Kids can drip, swirl, and layer their paints to create abstract, color-field paintings.
