Meet us where curiosity is cultivated
At Magical Minds Studio, your child is greeted with an open floorplan dotted with creative spaces like a ceramics studio and a “maker space”. There is also a backyard play space. The design is meant to inspire hands-on creative learning through art.
From the toddler to the middle schooler and beyond, there is something for everyone at the Magical Minds Studio.
The After School Workshop is designed for students who need a creative space for a few hours after school (Kindergarten through grade eight).
The Passport 2 Preschool program is designed to get kids ready for school (ages three to six).
There are also camps over spring break and other holidays. In addition, workshops are offered! Recent workshops include opportunities to draw and paint with themes like “pop art and superhero” and “ancient cultures”.
The large and open creative space is also available to rent for birthday parties! You will have a 2,400-square-foot area made for inspiring creativity and all the art supplies you need for a party.
The After School Workshop takes place Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 3pm to 6pm and Wednesday from 2:30 to 6pm.
Preschool classes take place Monday through Thursday 9am to 11:30am.
Workshops may vary in cost. The superheroes and ancient cultures workshop are both $52 for a half-day and $89 for a full day of artistic inspiration.
The after-school program is $30 per day and $8 per bus ride. The preschool program is $29 per day (based on a four-day week).
When Magical Minds Studio owner Haj Herbert, known as “Ms. Haj”, became a mother, she searched for hands-on learning opportunities that would inspire creativity in her child. When her search revealed limited options, she decided to make her own creative space for children.
And Magical Minds Studio was born!
Located at 110 Madison Street in Oak Park, Magical Minds Studio is a 15-minute drive west of downtown Chicago. It’s not far from the Oak Park Arts District.
