Our view: If you or your kids are it into art and you are in the Central Jersey area, a good place to go is the Around the Corner Art Studio. They have two locations in Freehold and Morganville and offer various classes for kids of different ages as well as for adults. Classes offered include drawing, painting, sewing,  and multi-media art. They also offer birthday parties starting at $250.00 for 15 kids. Birthday party costs vary according to what type of art party is chosen.  Choices include drawing, painting, fashion design and sculpting. For some of the parties, such as, drawing and painting all guests will be creating the same piece of art following the teacher's example.Therfore, if you are concerned with individuality or you are making a party for young children who may unhappily compare their work to each other, you might want to keep that in mind and choose an area where each person is creating their own individual piece of art and they do not have to do exactly the same drawing or painting or whatever. The studio also offers art camps and adult nights out. They also have a drop-in pottery painting studio.Various special workshops are held throughout the year including Teen Night Out Workshops. Costs of these workshops vary. Workshops may or may not include food. For more information go to http://aroundthecornerartcenter.com/index.html.

And that's our view. Tune tomorrow for another Talking Topic.
