It's that time of year again: time to start thinking about what you'd like to do when you grow up.
And for kids in Nebraska, that means thinking about art.
The Grand Island Independent reports on a new summer art program at the Prairie Arts Center in Grand Island.
Kids Klub is designed for kids ages 4 to 7, and it has expanded to include Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and a three-day class for kids 11-14 at the end of June.
Adult classes are also available.
"The art classes offer many benefits, including increased dexterity, comprehension, and critical and creative thinking," says the center's director.
