Two September Days Off, One Art Studio Ready for Them

Palm Beach County families have two Mondays off in September — Labor Day on Sept. 7 and the Fall Holiday on Sept. 21 — and both land squarely in the middle of a working week for most parents. Art Cellar KidzArt, the art studio at 8776 Lantana Road in Lake Worth, is one of the west-side spots that opens its doors on days like these with single-day camps for kids.

The single-day format is built for exactly this problem: one holiday, one drop-off, no week-long commitment. Kids spend the day working through guided projects — drawing, painting and mixed-media pieces they take home the same afternoon — with instructors who run the studio's regular after-school and in-school programs.

The studio's approach leans on a curriculum the KidzArt network has used for about 30 years, aimed at kids who already love to draw and, just as much, at the ones who insist they "can't." The pitch is less about polished technique and more about confidence, problem-solving and giving children a set of creative tools they can use on their own.

Art Cellar KidzArt is a familiar name for a lot of west Lake Worth and west Boynton parents already. Beyond camps, the studio offers Kidz Nights Out, homeschool classes, digital art and anime classes, private lessons, and after-care with pickup from Panther Run and Discovery Key elementary schools.

**If you go:** single-day camp spots and pricing are listed on the studio's registration page, and space is limited on holiday dates because they fill with families in the same bind. The studio is at 8776 Lantana Road, Lake Worth, and says texting (561) 267-4349 is the fastest way to reach them.

Both September dates also appear on our school calendar page, along with the rest of the district's days off for the year — handy if you like to plan childcare a few holidays ahead.
