Oyster Bay Town Councilwoman Vicki Walsh announces that the Town’s Toddler Arts & Crafts Program will return for Winter 2023, beginning on January 31, 2023. This 6-week program offers classes at the Town’s Oyster Bay Ice Skating Center Community Room and Hicksville Athletic Center, and is open to children ages 2 through 4.

“The Town’s Toddler Arts & Crafts Program is a wonderful way to help support your toddler’s development through nurturing their artistic expression,” said Councilwoman Walsh. “Classes will certainly fill up quickly as this program offers children a great wintertime activity.”

 

The Toddler Arts & Crafts Program is 6 weeks in duration, beginning January 31st, and residents who sign their toddler up for the program must choose one class per week, per child. Classes will take place on:

 

  • Tuesdays at 10am for two-year olds and 11am for three-and-four-year olds at the Hicksville Athletic Center in Hicksville;

 

  • Wednesdays at 10am for two-year olds and 11am for three-and-four-year olds at the Ice Skating Center Community Room in Bethpage; and

 

  • Thursdays at 10am for two-year olds and 11am for three-and-four-year olds at the Ice Skating Center Community Room in Bethpage.

 

Registration will take place online at www.oysterbaytowncom/parks starting Tuesday, January 3rd at 9am. Residents must create an account on this website to register their child and upload proof of residency and the child’s birth certificate. Registration will close when the program reaches full capacity.

 

Each class is approximately 30-45 minutes. The cost of the program is $35 per child who is a Town resident, and $45 per child whose care giver is a Town resident but not the child. A guardian must be present during the class. A smock and supplies will be provided.
