ARTLAND, an exciting new dimension in education, is an interactive art studio created especially for children ages 4 to 10. It is a special place designed to challenge and stimulate the imagination while allowing children to create works of art at their own pace.

ARTLAND features an art laboratory fully equipped with supplies and materials for making works of art and is complemented by child-sized easels and tables. Brilliantly painted murals reflected in mirroe panels depict the studio's muses "Micki Angelo" and "Donna Tello," inspired by two masters of Renaissance Art. Young visitprs enter ARTLAND through the children's theatre where they may participate in theatrical productions.
