The Art Tatum Zone has impacted my family greatly by providing a safe space for my children after school and during the summer months, exposing them to many activities like chess, martial arts, yoga, musical instruments, field trips, zoo memberships, etc. My daughters are thriving in school with the tutoring and homework help the Art Tatum Zone provides.
