In this workshop, Dana Haigh will introduce the Alcohol Inks medium to create paintings of free flow of expressions. Alcohol inks are fast-drying and highly pigmented. They flow freely over any non-porous surface and have a mind on their own, allowing for a liberating approach to art and unexpected, spontaneous results. If you are open to just having fun and “going with the flow”, this is the medium for you to explore. Class $40 | Material fee $35 Here is what they are saying about Dana's workshop: "The instructor was very welcoming and the class was very enjoyable. The process to sign up was so lovely as they were very responsive and willing to accommodate my requests."

Archery II is for students who have already taken the Fast Skills Sports Archery program. This class will give them next level challenges and instruction.

They want to buy their own bows now."

Have a kid who loves to move? Does your child want to explore different styles of games and sports without committing to a full season? Just want your child to be active in a safe and well-coached environment? At the Kids Multi-Sport Program, we facilitate the essential elements of success in many different sports and activities. The instruction emphasizes both skill-specific and team play. The program will focus on fundamentals, skills, and rules of games. Sessions will include a combination of skill focus and game-play periods. Participants will learn more than just sports in the program.

In this fun, hands-on program, children will explore age-appropriate AI tools for creating pictures, music, characters, and story ideas. Each day, students will complete two guided creative projects using their imagination and simple AI tools as a starting point. The focus is on creativity, play, and exploration. Children will use AI to spark ideas, then build on those ideas through art, storytelling, and music activities. Example activities may include: • Creating colorful AI-generated pictures and turning them into posters or story illustrations • Making simple AI-generated songs or soundtracks • Designing characters and writing short stories with AI help • Learning basic concepts about how AI works and how to use it responsibly The goal of this program is to help children see AI as a creative tool while strengthening imagination, curiosity, and critical thinking. Participants should bring a laptop if possible (a tablet or phone will also work), a nut-free snack, and a full water bottle.

In this interactive program, students will explore how AI can support creativity in art, music, storytelling, and idea generation. Each day, they will complete two hands-on projects that combine AI tools with their own thinking, choices, and creative direction. The focus will be not only on creating with AI, but also on learning how to shape better prompts, compare results, revise ideas, and think critically about what makes a project successful. Example activities may include: Creating AI-generated artwork and refining it into posters, story illustrations, or themed collections Making original songs, soundtracks, or lyric ideas using AI tools Designing characters, worlds, and short stories with AI support Learning foundational ideas about how AI works, where it is useful, and why human creativity and judgment still matter The goal of this program is to help students use AI as a creative resource while building imagination, confidence, and thoughtful decision-making. Participants should bring a laptop if possible (a tablet or phone will also work), a nut-free snack, and a full water bottle.

Get ready to mix, create, and sell! In this hands-on summer program, kids become real “Kidpreneurs” as they build and run their very own lemonade stand from start to finish. They’ll dream up fun flavors, test their recipes, design signs, set prices, and work together to bring their business to life. Along the way, they’ll talk to real customers, gather feedback, and make decisions just like true entrepreneurs—then set up shop outside Prescott Community Center to sell their final product to the community. Friends, family, and neighbors are invited to stop by, support these young business owners, and enjoy a refreshing cup of lemonade! All proceeds will go toward supporting future community programs at Prescott. It’s a fun, creative, and confidence-building experience where kids learn teamwork, problem-solving, and the excitement of running their own business. What They’ll Do Each Day: Day 1: Dream it up! Create a business plan, choose flavors/plan menu, set prices, and design eye-catching signs for marketing. Day 2: Test & create! Develop and test the products and create the final version for selling. Day 3: Launch day! Set up the stand, sell to real customers, review the results, and celebrate what they built together.

Launch into a Summer of Innovation! Join our Snapology engineers for an action-packed week of Space War Robotics and Superstructures! The Space War Robotics program allows students to design, build, and program space-themed robots using LEGO® bricks and motorized components. Participants explore key robotics concepts, including motors, gears, and sensors, while learning how to make their robots move, interact, and perform tasks in imaginative space scenarios. Throughout the program, students test and refine their creations, solve challenges, and experiment with different designs and strategies. They develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and engineering skills while learning how robotics principles are applied in real-world technology. The Superstructures program introduces students to the exciting world of architecture and engineering through hands-on building with LEGO® bricks. In this program, participants explore how large-scale structures—such as bridges, skyscrapers, towers, and other iconic constructions—are designed and built in the real world. Students engage in guided building challenges that encourage them to plan, construct, and test their own creations. Through these activities, they learn key engineering and architectural principles, including balance, stability, structural integrity, and the importance of strong foundations. As they experiment with different designs, students develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and critical thinking while discovering how structures withstand forces and loads. Both programs emphasize collaboration and teamwork, as students often work in small groups to bring ambitious projects to life. By combining hands-on building and imaginative play, these programs provide an exciting, interactive experience that inspires curiosity, creativity, and a love for STEM learning. There will be snack and movement breaks to stay energized!

Lilah Tully and Tessa Famighette, varsity volleyball players at Groton-Dunstable High School, are leading a youth volleyball clinic at the Prescott Community Center. Participants will learn volleyball fundamentals and enjoy playing games with their peers. Please bring a full water bottle, a nut-free snack, wear cool light weight athletic clothing and sneakers.

Children will explore speaking in front of others with the help of puppets, nursery rhymes, rhythm, singing, and will work on a presentation to share on the last day. Students of other ages may be able to participate at instructor’s discretion - email classes@riseartscollab.org. **Parent/Guardian is NOT required to stay for this class. Parent/Guardian may wait outside of the classroom in the building.** Here is what they are saying about Rise Arts Collaborative's Take the Stage JR program: "The teacher and her assistant were both awesome. I love that they leaned into what the kids were craving...particularly, KPOP Demon Hunter dance parties to get their juices flowing! My daughter had her first on-stage experience thanks to this class and I'm so grateful to Jessica for having this class open to children her age. It means a lot, and she let a friend's younger sister (3) join who also got a lot out of it!" "My child is becoming more confident about speaking and performing with each session."

Kids will explore speaking in front of others with the help of storytelling, singing, miming, short monologues, and will work on a presentation to share on the last day.
