Summer Art Programs
Our summer art program, Artful Mornings will return to an in-person format for 2022. The art programs will take place in the museum’s large multipurpose room, which provides ample space to spread out, socially distance, and be creative. Artful Mornings will run from Tuesday-Thursday from 9:00 AM-12:00 PM.
Drop off and Pick up
All workshops meet in the large multi-purpose space, the Key Cultural Center. Your child must be accompanied by an adult to and from the classes. Doors to the program typically open 10 minutes before the program begins. A sign-in and out sheet will be at the front desk for you to check your child in/out.
Refund Policy
If needed refunds will be issued for a cancellation, however, registrants will be responsible for the Eventbrite processing fees which are non-refundable
In the event the Albany Institute must cancel a class, a full refund will be issued.

Hi Raphel, thank you for your interest in the art kits! Yes, you absolutely can order multiple sets. We ask that if someone would like to make a large order (such as 10 or more) for a whole class that they get in touch with our Director of Art Programs, Sarah Clowe directly so we can ensure we have enough prepared in stock.
