What do yoga under the stars, animal encounters, and science experiments have in common? They’re all part of The Living Arts & Science Center’s lineup of fall events.

The LASC’s Fun-Stitute is the place where learning and fun for all abilities + ages (yes, you adults, too) meet. Here are a few of our top picks that will get your brain thinking and creativity flowing:

🔬 Seedlings in STEAM

It’s never too early to foster an interest in science. From a close-up look at the bugs living around The LASC to learning how birds construct their nests, this eight-week program is perfect for kiddos (ages 3-5) who love nature. Explore the full program lineup before registering your child.

🎨 Teen Art Lab

This afterschool series of classes, held on Tuesday evenings 5:30-7:30 p.m., provides middle school art-lovers a safe space to meet like-minded people, try new things, and potentially discover new hobbies and interests. Each meeting is a stand-alone class, and students may register for as many classes as they’d like (pre-registration is required).

🧸 Family Classes

Fun for the whole family? Count us in. This fall, the Fun-Stitute has four chances for families to take a class together. Here’s what to add to your calendar:

  • Spa Day | Saturday, Aug. 24, 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
  • Paint & Sip: Family Edition | Saturday, Sept. 28, 10 a.m.-12 p.m.

Calling all yogis: This beloved class is back. Attendees can find their inner zen in an immersive experience under the cosmos.

The first and fourth Saturdays of each month are reserved for adults. Kiddos are invited to attend with a family member on the second Saturday of each month. Space is extremely limited for this class so make sure to secure your spot in advance.

We’ll see you in class.
