Parker Arts recognizes the growing trend for parents to spend quality time with their kids. Rather than dropping their kids off for soccer practice, parents are now watching drills or even coaching. That's why Parker Arts provides opportunities for parents and their children to share enriching experiences.
These parent/child classes are so fun, you won't even realize you are learning and bonding!
