DDB’s 21st CCLC After School Clubs are truly something special 💛
Clubs are more than just a place to go after school—they’re a space to explore, create, and discover new passions. From sewing and tap dancing to cooking, art, Dungeons & Dragons, yo-yo, Pokémon, theater, and so much more, there’s something for everyone!
And of course… it’s not all serious—we love the candid moments too! The laughter, the silliness, and the joy that happens when kids feel comfortable just being themselves are what make these clubs unforgettable.

🎨✨ Our Art Club at DDB’s 21st CCLC After-School Program had a creative and mind-stretching session this week!
Students explored the fascinating world of tessellations—patterns made from shapes that fit perfectly together without gaps or overlaps. Inspired by math, geometry, and art, our young artists experimented with repeating shapes and designed their own colorful tessellation patterns.
It was amazing to see their creativity come alive as they discovered how art and math connect! 🧩🖌️
Great job to all our artists for their focus, imagination, and teamwork. We can’t wait to see what they create next!
