OUR STORY

SHASTYE Art Gallery and Play Space began development in Astoria, New York 2015.  Our desire was to provide a safe place for children to explore and discover the joy of making art!

 

Each of our activities have been tested many times in our play space to ensure that parents and children will enjoy creating each project together.  Cutting, pasting, mixing, molding, folding threading and painting are all skills your child will master.  As their fine motor skills sharpen and creativity grows, you will discover a new relationship within a world where your child has become the "master builder".

 

Our goal is to reach beyond the average classroom craft project, and give your child the opportunity to think thoughtfully about creating a beautiful piece of art.  We believe that by encouraging your child to be creative, solve problems and make their own unique choices, they will develop a personal confidence that will later translate into a valuable life skills.

​

Imagine a world where your child has 100% control over the outcome of their choices and when they succeed, they have created something beautiful for many people to enjoy.
