Creative Arts

When we choose to create, we choose to be vulnerable - to give someone the opportunity to see us. Creativity begets vulnerability, which begets a sense of belonging.

“There is nothing more vulnerable than creativity. It's not about winning, it's not about losing, it's about showing up and being seen.” Brené Brown

  • These sessions are designed to develop new skills & learn different art techniques. Each session will build off of the previous session.

    Lisa will teach art exercises and fun activities incorporating arts and crafts while bringing a therapeutic approach, as well as connecting scripture to the activity.

    This is not art therapy. However, creating art is therapeutic! The goal of these sessions is to help your child develop skills, feel confident, & foster their creativity.

    These sessions are for one adopted child. Age requirements vary depending on the type of session. See booking form for details

  • Students use a variety of mediums and learn different techniques that will help them to be expressive through art and grow in their creativity.

    These sessions are for adopted children and their siblings. Age requirements vary depending on the type of session. See booking form for details

  • Sign up for a morning or afternoon and spend an hour or two exploring the trails with your family and friends. We’ve created new trails with activities for all ages—choose your own adventure for the day!

    You can:

    • Walk the trails while reading Bible verses and singing worship songs.

    • Hunt for hidden geocaches in the woods.

    • Enjoy the playground, obstacle course, and open spaces.

    • Pick up a Nature Kit from the riding arena’s screen porch to enhance your adventure.

    This is a self-guided event—not staffed—so it’s the perfect opportunity to meet up with friends and enjoy time together outdoors.

    Reminders:

    • Please keep children within view at all times.

    • Use the barn bathroom, as the riding arena will be in use for scheduled sessions.

    • Make sure to wear tennis shoes and long pants, bring bug spray and sunscreen.

    We look forward to seeing you on the trails!

  • This summer we are giving families the opportunity to grow and tend their own garden and learn about keeping chickens. We believe working as a family helps you learn more about each other and grow together. Being outside with animals and growing plants both have great health benefits too!

    • Your family will help maintain the garden all spring and summer, from seeds to harvest.

    • In addition to the gardens we will also learn about keeping chickens and all that goes into maintaining them, including cleaning their coop and run.

    • We will have a shed with tools and other supplies available, so you don’t have to worry about bringing your own. 

    • Eventually you will be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor from the garden and will also get eggs!
