We are excited here at Kindred Creatives Art and Literary Press! Join us as we BAN THE SUMMER SLUMP with summer clubs! We are offering a variety of clubs and classes that promote the love of literacy, creativity, and entrepreneurship for all. Taught by many teachers who are passionate for what they are teaching. Clubs happen almost every day of the week, weekends included.

We want to keep kids from falling through the cracks or losing the knowledge that they learned. We want to help them retain it as well as develop a love for learning as a lifestyle. Students who are not actively learning or creating during the summer break lose a lot of knowledge, making it harder to catch up in the next school year. Here at Kindred Creatives, we make learning fun! A stress-free space and inclusive to all.
