WAIT! We can't believe school is starting. Our summer crew had the best time exploring the city, making new friends and learning all about art, culture, science and more! Thanks to our amazing staff and volunteers that made all our weekly adventures this summer possible.

Our friends at @inkwellkids stopped by and spent the afternoon making seashell art with our NAC kids. From necklaces and bracelets, to key chains and displays, our kids had an amazing time expressing themselves and their creativity on their unique seashell backdrops!
