Clay invites little hands to press, roll, pinch, pull, build, change their minds, and try again. 🤎

There’s no one right way to create here. Just materials, imagination, and time to explore.

Art, community, and young artists. 💜

There’s something pretty special about seeing children’s work hanging alongside the artwork that inspired it.

Our Preschool and PreK children at Inspire Taos recently explored the landscapes of artist Jeremy Adair, then created landscapes of their own using oil pastels and baby oil.

Now their work is on display at the IMAGINE Art Cafe, right alongside the artwork that helped inspire their exploration.

Stop by, grab something from the cafe, take a look at the exhibit, and help us celebrate our young artists. We love having a community space where children’s ideas and creativity are treated as something worth sharing.

Come see their work and support the Art Cafe while you’re there! 💜

Sometimes the best play materials aren’t found in a toy aisle.

Sticks. Pinecones. Rocks. Leaves. Clay. Paper.

These materials invite children to imagine, create, experiment, and discover in ways that don’t come with instructions. 🌿

We might just love stuff… especially the kind that sparks curiosity.

Water gives life to our community.

In our Water & Sand Room, children can explore an interactive light geoboard of the Taos County watershed. With the press of a button, each waterway lights up, inviting children to discover how water shapes our landscape and connects the places we call home.

Which river would you choose first?

Hands-on materials invite curiosity, creativity, and connection. 🤎

There is no right way to create. The joy is in the process.

Come explore, create, and play.
