Beautifully Made Atelier is...

An outdoor studio in a neighborhood of Menifee, California where children who love to play and create come to extend and deepen their curiosity, wonder, imagination and creativity. Come join us in one of our programs! We offer weekly Outdoor Learning, Art Classes & Art Workshops.

Our mission…

Is to value each artist that comes into our studio as a special, unique, creative, capable, and intelligent human being; created in the image of God. Therefore, we are committed to providing a place where they could enter and feel welcomed, loved, cared for, and respected.

Our curriculum is inspired from the children in our program as we aim to extend and deepen their curiosity, wonder, imagination and creativity. We provide them with numerous opportunities to find the answers to their questions as we partner and wonder with them. This helps to develop skills such as focus, perspective talking, negotiation, effective communication, establishing connections, problem solving, and risk taking.

Additionally, we believe that everyone should have access to the best artist's material such as clay, pastels, beading, weaving, wire and natural materials as well as canvases and high-quality paper to use with various types of paint and collage.

    Our outdoor program is built on the foundation that children learn best through engagement, movement, by stimulating their curiosities and by focusing on the process. By using the Reggio Emilia approach, we have the opportunity of creating a curriculum which our students could connect and collaborate in a rich hands–on environment. While in our program your child will be developing social and emotional skills including the ability of becoming critical thinkers and problem solvers while becoming respectful and productive. The end goal is for your child to become young observers, learners and active participants in their environments. It’s like learning how to learn.
