Welcome to Creative Arts Preschool

Creative Arts Preschool is a small, art and nature preschool in Bozeman where children grow through creativity, outdoor exploration, and meaningful relationships.

Every day includes hands-on art, daily nature walks, music, movement, and plenty of time to imagine, discover, and play. Our intentionally small classes allow each child to feel known, encouraged, and confident as they learn.

We welcome children ages 2½ to 5 during the school year and ages 3 to 8 for our summer camp program.

What Makes Our Program Unique

  • Art Every Day
    Children explore painting, sculpture, collage, clay, and other creative experiences inspired by nature and the changing seasons.

  • Nature Walks & Outdoor Play
    Daily walks encourage curiosity as children discover Montana's plants, birds, changing seasons, and the joy of being outdoors.

  • Warm, Personalized Approach
    With three caring teachers and a small group of children, every child is truly known, encouraged, and supported.
