Join us for YALA Baby Artsplay!™ at the New Orleans Jazz Museum on Sunday, September 8th at 10:30 AM CST in the Drumsville Exhibition, (circular room), on the 2nd floor of the New Orleans Jazz Museum.

Young Audiences of Louisiana Baby Artsplay!™ Presented by The Helis Foundation is the perfect opportunity for caregivers to integrate purposeful activities into their child’s playtime that support their cognitive, physical, and social development. Research shows, and parents confirm, that multi-sensory approaches to learning help young children create deeper, more meaningful connections with the world around them. Baby Artsplay!™ will engage children and their caregivers in joyful and easy to replicate multisensory experiences that help children reach developmental milestones, while immersed in New Orleans' art and cultural institutions.

A toddler's energy seems infinite before the nap-time crash. What if you could use art to focus that energy, for their benefit (and yours!). Use artful play to develop your child’s fine and gross motor skills.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. The workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download the digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home.

The YALA Baby Artsplay!™ workshops are for ages 0-2.
