Happy Makers

Happy Makers will explore process-based art projects that will range widely in materials and techniques. We’ll be experimenting with painting, sculpting, collage, tinkering, papier-mâché, and so much more. Projects may organically arise to adapt to the interests of the students. Happy Makers will be encouraged to explore, discover and experiment. Sessions will culminate with a group Art Show open to family & friends.

    ILLNESS

    For the safety of all of our students and staff, if your child is displaying signs of any illness (fever, pain, vomiting, runny nose, excessive coughing etc.), please do not bring them to the studio. If your child displays any of these symptoms or complains of not feeling well during a class or camp, an adult will immediately be called for early pick-up. While, make-up classes due to illness are NOT GUARANTEED, we will do our best to accommodate you in those circumstances.

    Hey! Happy Makers will follow all current Covid and respiratory illness guidelines put forth by the Oregon Health Authority and/or CDC. In accordance, masking will be optional for our Summer 2024 sessions.

    MAKE-UP CLASSES

    If you miss a class or camp due to illness, scheduling conflict, or any other reason, we do NOT GUARANTEE a make-up class or camp. However, we will do our best to accommodate you if space allows in a different class during the same session.

    In the event that Hey! Happy Makers needs to cancel, we will first try to reschedule or offer a refund.

    BEHAVIOR & SAFETY

    Our goal at Hey! Happy Makers is to foster a community of kind and respectful creatives.

    • Students and parents will be expected to be respectful of their peers and teachers, as well as of the studio, materials and tools so that our space remains enjoyable and safe for all to use.

    • We ask that you consider your child’s readiness for a camp or class. It may not be a good fit for students who need constant individualized attention.

    • In some instances, we will use sharp and potentially dangerous tools such as (but limited to) scissors, hammers, and hot glue guns. As such, we ask that your child has no physical, emotional, or social conditions that may make it unsafe, in any way, for them to participate in our programs.

    • For the safety of everyone, running and rough play will not be tolerated in the studio.

    MEDIA USAGE

    All media usage is OPT-OUT for customers. We want to share all of your fun creations with the world! By enrolling in any of our programs, you give Hey! Happy Makers permission to use photography, video and other media that might include you or your child’s image without any approval. This media will only be used with good intentions and could include use for promotions, print, website, and social media.

    If you choose to opt-out, please email hello@heyhappymakers.com.

  • We’ll always do our best to encourage and guide artists to participate in the projects but we will never force it, making art will always be opt-in for the children. In lieu of participating, we have games, books and quiet corners for kids who may need other stimulation. This being said, we do ask that you consider your child’s readiness for a group class. It may not be a good fit for students who need constant individualized attention.
