Youth at BARN
BARN strives to provides an empowering environment where youth can explore new creative outlets. Unless otherwise specified, all BARN classes are open to ages 14 and up. We also have programs specifically for youth, such as Teen Nights, Summer at BARN, and Maker Monday after-school classes. Ages are noted in the activity description.

Each month during the school year, we offer a free Friday evening of art, friends, music and creativity for teens (7th-12th grade). Teens can choose from activities like cooking, woodworking, sewing, jewelry making, metal working, and more – every month is different! Registration required.
