Brooklyn Trails

an outdoor arts program nestled in Prospect Park

Welcome to Brooklyn Trails! With Nature as our canvas, our mixed-media art classes provide a playful sanctuary for children, blending the magic of creative expression with nature stewardship.

In our vibrant co-learning environment, children not only discover the joy of art making but also cultivate a sense of community that values kindness and thoughtfulness. Brooklyn Trails classes empower children to explore, question, and dream, fostering creative problem-solving skills and the confidence to color outside the lines.

Our activities, tailored for ages 4-7, go beyond traditional art classes. We focus on social-emotional learning, promoting autonomy, self-reliance, collaboration, and healthy conflict resolution. Respecting every child's right to be informed and involved, our programming emphasizes their active participation in decision-making, creating a space where their voices are heard.

At Brooklyn Trails, we believe in the power of creativity, nature, and community to inspire young minds. Our program offers children the chance to explore art in meaningful ways—building confidence, developing new skills, and expressing their unique perspectives.

Through hands-on projects and thoughtful guidance, we foster a culture of curiosity, inclusivity, and leadership. Join us this summer as we create space for every child to grow, connect, and thrive.
