In the center of the United States, nestled like a sunflower seed in the heart of the great bread basket, you'll find a magical place called Kansas. Now, you may think Kansas is just a lot of flat land and vast fields of wheat swaying in the wind. But oh no, my friends, Kansas is much, much more. It's also home to the most imaginative, crafty, and artistic kids you could ever meet! And now, allow me to introduce you to the coolest Kansan of them all, the imaginative character known as Kaleidoscope Karl! Yes, he's a tornado of color, a whirlwind of creativity, and he's as Kansan as a plate of barbecue ribs. With his rainbow suspenders, spectacles that twinkle like stars, and a hat that seems to always be brimming with glitter, he is the unofficial mayor of all things fun and artsy in Kansas! Every day, Kaleidoscope Karl gathers the kids of Kansas for the most amazing Art & Crafts activities. They create sculptures from wheat stalks, paint murals of the wide-open prairies, and design intricate mazes from corn cobs. The laughter and creativity bounce across the plains like a kangaroo who drank too much coffee! These Kansas kids aren't just making crafts; they're creating memories, making friends, and learning that their home state is filled with just as much magic, beauty, and adventure as any other place in the world. And if you ask them, they'll tell you - being a Kansas kid with Kaleidoscope Karl is a tornado of fun!

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
Our summer camps are open to children in grades 1 through 12, while our mid-winter retreat in January is meant for grades 7 to 12. We also offer retreats for adult men and women. At MLCC, we understand the importance of growing in knowledge of the Lord and becoming part of a Christian community. Our summer and winter camps are designed to help campers do just that. We are committed to creating a safe and enriching environment where campers can learn and grow in their faith. We also provide retreats for adults where men and women can build relationships with each other and God. Our retreats create an atmosphere of encouragement and open dialogue, allowing adults to gain a deeper understanding of the Bible and their faith in God.
