About Paintbox Kids
Paintbox Kids, a hands-on arts studio designed for children, is a warm, cozy destination adjacent to Pasadena's Historic Highlands neighborhood. Murals and samples of all kinds of artwork don the walls, and Terry, the studio's owner, describes her business as "unstuffy." She's right; the set-up is comfortable and unpretentious, with throw rugs, mobiles, pint-sized chairs and tables, and neat art supplies.
Parents, grandparents, and caregivers are invited to roll up their sleeves and create right alongside visiting children, and kids ages five and up can be dropped off for themed classes. Custom classes for groups of six or more can also be arranged.
Paintbox Kids offers classes, workshops, and summer camps for artists ages five to 11, as well as teen and adult classes; check the website for more details. The venue also features weekly walk-in studio hours, when patrons can take advantage of traditional and recycled art supplies to create their own masterpieces. Call ahead to inquire about when walk-in times are offered.
Children's parties at Paintbox Kids last two hours and include the theme and art activity of your choosing, teaching staff and all materials, a story or game related to the party theme, and set up/clean-up services. Parties are $325 for up to 10 children and $25 for each additional guest. Optional add-ons, such as invitations and party favors, are available at an extra charge.

- My four year old absolutely loves Paintbox Kids! The studio is bustling with an amazing range of art materials to make wonderful projects. It is a fun and happy place to bring your kids. The classes are top notch, too. My son took a class (Music Box Tots) with Maria. She has a wonderful rapport with children and my son loved the musical instruments he got to make in class. This is a place where kids can immerse themselves in art and explore and discover their creativity. Highly recommended!

[Submitted by Anonymous11/20/08 - This studio has put together a list of classes and programs that simply pull the creative nature of children to the forefront. Terry has managed to utilize the best of industry of Art and Education to create a truly inspiring experience. I love the range of classes from recycled art to stop animation. This place is a gift to the city.

[Submitted by Andrew5/31/08 - My Granddaughter loves Paint Box Kids! Any child lucky enough to have an experience with Terry will be positively influenced for life! A must do to foster that creative side in every child!
