Our first process and creative arts space located in The Hamptons, NY – where creativity, art, and exploration will be at the center of everything we do.
Shine’s custom, signature classes and workshops for children, previously only presented in pop-up fashion, are now available at The Shine Studio. Featuring three large studios, an indoor and outdoor cafe area, gardens, an outdoor play space that includes a classroom and stage, and direct access to the Long Pond Greenbelt trails, the possibilities for this amazing new space are endless.
Fall Semester (Monday, October 2nd – Friday, December 22nd)
Little Luminaries 2s/3s
Mondays and/or Fridays, 9:00 – 11:00 am or 12:00 pm (ages 2-3 years)
Children will have a chance to engage in creative, structured play while working on socialization and developing autonomy. Each class will be based around a central theme or concept and include circle time with discussion, music and movement, an art and/or sensory activity, a story, and just enough free play/exploration.
Little Luminaries 3s/4s
Tuesdays and/or Thursdays, 9:00 – 11:00 am or 12:00 pm (ages 3-4 years)
In this level, independence, community, and collaborative learning are emphasized as themes involve even larger concepts. It is during this program that we focus on the fostering of self-confidence, early learning skills, and problem solving techniques. Also in this level, artists, countries, and culture get introduced to the mix and we help to further prepare students —cognitively, socially, and emotionally— for full-time school.
Crafternoons
Mondays, 3:30 – 5:30 pm (ages 4-12 years); Thursdays, 4:00 – 5:00 pm (ages 5-8 years); and Fridays, 12:30 – 5:30 pm (ages 4-12 years)
Come hang out in the Studio and get your craft on! Our “Crafternoons” allow art-loving kids to spend time working independently on projects of their choice with guidance from our Shine staff. Whether kids are in the mood to make friendship pins, curate dried flower arrangements, or use our materials to create an original piece, there will be something to spark everyone’s creativity.
Prenatal Fitness
Mondays, 9:30 – 10:30 am
This class is a mixture of yoga, strength training exercises, and movement training to keep women strong, safe, and mobile while preparing for labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery.
Wednesday Workshops
Wednesdays, 3:30 – 5:00 pm (ages 4-12 years)
Join founder/director Aaron Goldschmidt, as well as other local artists and artisans, for an introduction to a signature project each week based on current seasons, holidays, cultural celebrations, and more.

Ballet/Jazz

Sensory Art
Wednesdays, 10:30 – 11:30 am (ages 2-4 years)
Our hands-on sensory art class will allow younger children to get an introduction to art by literally getting their hands dirty. We will pull, roll, smush, mix, and experience art through all of our senses.

Located in Bridgehampton, NY, The Shine Studio offers outdoor and indoor spaces for a wide range of our signature activities. The space was renovated by a team of craftsmen from Benenaula Construction, a Hamptons local construction company, who worked with us on every detail to make our space inviting, functional, beautiful, and modern. It is truly a dream come true and we can’t wait to have you!
Last but certainly not least, we have to say a huge ‘thank you’ to UUCSF for hosting us and providing such a wonderful space for our programming. We can’t stop thinking of the endless possibilities to come from this new collaboration.
