Inside Merrimack: A Peek Into Our Vibrant Creative Spaces

April 20, 2025
We’re thrilled to be in our new home in Owens Cross Roads. Merrimack is thriving in our new creative arts facility — and now we’re excited to give you a closer look!

Bursting with color, movement, and inspiration, the new location reflects our commitment to inclusion, imagination, and the healing power of the arts. From sensory-friendly obstacle courses to vibrant music studios and pottery wheels humming with life, our new home is built to ignite joy across every age and ability.

Studio A – Movement & Motor Magic

Colorful, engaging, and full of motion, Studio A is where students explore the world through movement. With yoga mats, therapy balls, balance beams, and imaginative play equipment, this space is designed for everything from physical therapy to creative dance.

Whether kids are crawling through tunnels or spinning scarves to music, they’re developing motor skills and confidence in a space designed with accessibility in mind.

Studio B – The Art Room You Dreamed Of

Here, the tables are long, the easels are ready, and the imagination runs wild. Studio B is our visual arts haven—home to Happy Artists, workshops, and gallery-worthy student showcases.

From finger-painted textures to layered collages, this space is as therapeutic as it is inspiring. Color, expression, and pride live on every wall.

Studio C – Music, Rhythm & Mindfulness

You’ll hear the heartbeat of Merrimack in Studio C. This flexible, multipurpose space adapts to the energy of each class—sometimes bright and rhythmic, filled with percussion, guitars, and music-making joy; other times softly lit and serene, setting the stage for yoga, stretching, or mindful movement.

Whether students are finding their voice in a music workshop or grounding themselves through breath and body awareness, Studio C supports self-expression, connection, and calm—all in one beautifully adaptive environment.

Studio D – Clay, Creativity & Kilns

There’s nothing quite like getting your hands into a fresh slab of clay. Our pottery studio is equipped with wheels, kilns, and shelves of student work-in-progress, where tactile learning meets fine art expression.

This is where form takes shape and students experience the satisfaction of turning mud into masterpieces.

More Than a Space — It’s a Statement

Every square foot of Merrimack’s new location was designed with love, access, and creativity at its core. This isn’t just a building—it’s a launchpad for imagination, a safe haven for expression, and a vibrant celebration of what it means to belong.

We can’t wait for you to visit. Come take a class, join a program, or just walk the halls and soak up the magic. Merrimack is here, and it’s brighter than ever.
