CASK, the Creative Art Space for Kids Foundation (formerly of Oceanside) is proud to announce the reopening of it's Art Studio and Gallery at 48-D Atlantic Avenue in Lynbrook. In collaborating with Theater Workshop, in the newly formed LICAS, Long Island Cultural Art Studios, it is our dream to give Long Island the Art Mecca it has been waiting for. One can only imagine the benefits for our young people and the community at large having regular access to all the Arts have to offer. In our post September 11th world, the Arts are sustaining themselves on a grassroots- community level. We encourage the community to come together in support of the Arts as a positive outlet for self expression for our youth.

COME SUPPORT THE ARTS!!

Kids are invited to come draw, paint, and sculpt in the art studio FREE OF CHARGE. During this time artwork by CASK's staff and students will be on exhibit in the gallery and throughout the art studio. Painting demonstrations and lecture by The-R-Tus himself and an Altered Books lecture and demonstration by artist Karen Michel is scheduled throughout the afternoon.

This event is free and open to the public, parents are encouraged to bring their children.

HISTORY
CASK, the Creative Art Space for Kids Foundation is a nonprofit, tax exempt arts education program for children and adolescents which has been serving the Long Island community with an artistic education center since 1996. Fostering imagination to generate creativity, CASK, with the collaboration of it's Founder, Artist Carlo Thertus and staff of artists/teachers, educates youth by developing and encouraging art as a positive vehicle for self expression. Art exhibitions featuring the artwork of local and international artists as well as children's art are held in the gallery and various art classes are held Tuesdays through Sundays in the art studio.
CASK's educational programs foster healthy social development with the understanding that art is the mark that distinguishes one's heritage, history, values, communities and conscience. By sharing the gift of creativity with children and giving them the outlet for self expression, we are setting the stage for the future of not only our communities, but our society and humanity at large.
