Birthday Parties

Host your birthday party with us at Green Art Labs!

Celebrate creativity, sustainability and your birthday with Green Art Labs. Kids love creating with their friends!

We can customize a party just for you. Fairies? Robots? Animals? Whatever your kid is into, we can make a party of it.

Our parties are unique because kids and adults of all ages can have fun creating with our reusable materials. We’ll bring all the supplies and meet you at your location or ours. It’s easy, fun and your party artists can then take home their creation as their “goody bag.”

❋ Personalized Approach

We’ll meet with you or the birthday person to decide what kind of creations reflect your passion, or choose one of our amazing themes. Then we’ll supply all the reusable materials and art supplies needed to engage your guests in their creative expression. And best of all, they take home their creation as the party favor; no bag of plastic junk (that no one really wants!)

❋ We’ll meet your needs

We are flexible and can make a party fit your specific needs. Our party costs include all reusable materials and supplies. We can meet you where you are, or hold your party at one of the spaces we reccomend.

❋ Expert Facilitation

Our founder, Joan Green, is an artist and a mother of three adult children. She draws on her 15 years as an arts educator—inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach to child development—to create our curriculum. Joan is passionate about connecting people to their creativity and the Earth through reusable materials.

Some of our unique themes, sure to capture the imagination of any child!:

❋ Dreaming in Rainbows

❋ Homes for Fairies

❋ Magical Sound Machines

❋ Creative Halloween

❋ Animals Abound

❋ Rockin’ Robots

❋ Wild About Nature

❋ A Supportive Space

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

Party Eco Tips! Here are some tips for making your birthday celebration waste-free:

  • Use reusable plates, utensils, and cups – set up a wash station for guests to help wash

  • Use reusable platters and trays for food

  • Put drinks in pitchers and jugs instead of using single-use bottled water and drinks

  • Use cloth napkins and washable handkerchiefs

  • Compost your left over food

  • Recycle any paper/plastic/aluminum/glass waste

  • Reuse items like wrapping paper, bows, gift bags, etc.

  • Wrap gifts in fabric or recyclable newsprint

  • Give experiences instead of material gifts

  • Write your card on reused paper or cut the back cover off an old card and use the front designed part again!

  • If you’re doing a piñata, spend time making your own with your child. They’re pretty easy! Then fill it with usable items like tooth brushes, bags of seeds, fortunes you write yourself, little packs of clay, pencils, and feathers.

  • Instead of goody bags with plastic toys that break or get thrown away, give seeds or plants to grow, or give a reused book from your book shelf. Or…have them create something in the Green Art Lab to take home.
