Something’s cooking up in Wilder Arts Studio, and it promises to be VERY sweet.

Welcome to the Montpelier Candy Kitchen, where every week we will be boiling, dipping, molding, and crystallizing lollipops and chocolates and gummies and more! Even better, we’ll learn exactly what chemical reactions are taking place, on a molecular level, to make these sugary confections come to life. Every week, children will go home with a fresh batch of candy to share with friends and family.

This class is named after the historic Montpelier Candy Kitchen, which was located in downtown Montpelier in the early 1900s. This class will also explore and recreate nostalgic treats that children in the turn of the century would have enjoyed (in addition to our more modern beloved treats!)

This is a 12 week class. We will provide a walking school bus from Union Elementary School.

(We are committed to our students, families, and staff safety and health. All Wilder Arts staff are fully vaccinated and boosted. Masks are optional. We will also continue to open windows and utilize our 3 air purifiers to ensure good air quality in the studio. We will also utilize our outdoor space for snacks and work.)

Mondays 3pm to 5pm | March 13, 2023 to June 12, 2023 (No class on April 24th and May 29th.)
