What happens when you give young artists the freedom to explore, experiment, and see the world a little differently?

In our Creative Arts Immersion program, art is about more than what ends up on the page.

It's about following a spark of curiosity. Finding inspiration in the landscape around us. Exploring color, texture, form, and feeling. Taking creative risks, reworking an idea, and discovering something unexpected along the way.

With our mentor Ally, the Cedars (ages 10–12) and Hawks (ages 12–14) have been exploring everything from expressive painting and collaborative art to sculpture inspired by the natural world.

Some days, the trees become the canvas. Other days, music shapes a shared drawing, or a collection of individual pieces comes together into something bigger.

There's room to experiment, make a mess, change your mind, and find your own creative voice. 🌿

Our Hawks group has room for a few more young artists!

If you have a creative teen who would love a space to explore, make, and connect with other young people, we'd love to hear from you.

How we feel getting ready for tonight's annual Roots & Wings Village Fall Festival 🧙🏼‍♀️🪄💃🏼🕺🏼

10/08/2026

As a mentor, my heart melts watching these kids be so fully expressed in their joy and so completely embodied in their play. This is our ✨why✨

It's always the simplest things they seem to appreciate the most... like these recently fallen, perfectly dry, crunchy leaves. 🍁🍂

No amount of lesson plans can recreate what happens during undisturbed, unstructured free play in nature.

🌿 THE VILLAGE COMMONS | TOMORROW 🌿

Friday, October 2 | 1–4 PM

Once a month, we open up Roots & Wings and make space for something we think families need more of:

**time to simply be together.**

Tomorrow’s Commons will include:

🧶 Beginner Crochet Club
🌿 Qigong
🎨 Watercolor Play
🎴 Pokémon Club — bring your cards!

Plus plenty of time for free play around the nature playscape, mud kitchen, garden, yurts, and outdoor spaces.

The Commons isn't a class, and it isn't a tightly scheduled event. Come for an hour or stay for the afternoon. Let the kids play. Find a friend. Meet someone new. Join an offering—or bring an idea of your own.

And if you're new to Roots & Wings, this is a beautiful way to experience the community. The Village Commons is part of our Roots & Wings Community Membership, which is open to families even if their children aren't enrolled in our daytime programs.

🌿 $35/month per family
✨ First month FREE with code VILLAGE

Village Commons is a family gathering, not a drop-off program.

Little hands creating. Big imaginations exploring. Friendships growing. Curiosity leading the way.

A glimpse into the everyday magic of learning, playing, and growing together in our little village.

🌿 THE VILLAGE COMMONS IS BACK! 🌿

Friday, October 2 | 1–4 PM

One afternoon each month, Roots & Wings becomes our shared village.

Come play, wander, connect, meet other families, join a club, bring your own game or activity, or simply spend an afternoon outside together. There’s no packed schedule and no pressure to participate—just space to be in community. 💛

🌱 Nature playscape + mud kitchen
🎲 Games + free play
🧶 Community clubs + activities
✨ Space for kids and families to share their own interests and gifts

And for our 12+ crowd…

🎲 TEEN GAME NIGHT | 4–7 PM

After the Commons, the space becomes theirs.

October’s theme: MYSTERY & ADVENTURE 🕵️‍♀️

Mystery games, challenges + adventure—with plenty of time to hang out, eat dinner and just be teens together.
We’re building a consistent, screen-light space where teens can connect, develop independence, contribute to their community, and have a social world that belongs to them.

📍 Roots & Wings Village | Walden, NY
🎟️ RSVP required — see QR code or link in bio

Come for an hour. Stay for the afternoon. Bring a friend. 💛
