Headwaters Lil Artist preschool art program to resume in 2024


BEMIDJI — Headwaters Music and Arts preschool art program, Lil Artist, will begin again in January and March for children ages 2.5-5 and their adult guardians at Headwaters, 519 Minnesota Ave. NW.

The program is led by local artist and Headwaters art instructor Maranda Stauffacher. The class will explore the elements of art such as color, texture, pattern, shapes and more.

Interested families have two eight-week sessions to choose from, both held on Thursdays from 1 to 2 p.m. The first session will run from Jan. 4 to Feb. 22. The second session will begin Mar. 7 and run through May 7, with no class on Thursday, Mar. 14.

Participants can expect fun and messy art projects that will introduce pre-K children to the basics of art while exploring age-appropriate media, a release said.

Stauffacher is a visual artist and art instructor who studied Theatre and Communication Arts at Bemidji State.

She has been a Headwaters art instructor since 2022 and is currently the lead instructor for the K-2 Art Club.

Each child who attends Lil Artist is required to be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or other special adult. The cost to attend is $150 per child-adult pair and $75 per additional child. Headwaters offers financial assistance options for all of its youth programming to ensure accessibility for all.

Space for the program is limited so advance registration is required at
