Music Together 6-Week Class
We are partnering with Music Together Tamalpais to offer a special summer musical series. Matthew, the owner of Woander, went through this music program with his own kids and highly recommends it.
From babyhood through the early elementary years, Music Together nurtures each child’s natural musicality in a playful, musically rich learning environment. Our research-based music classes are designed to be non-formal and non-performance oriented, so your child can learn at his or her own pace, in a way that’s developmentally appropriate.

August Art Walk: Katie's Dragon Child
Dragon Child
Join us for the Mill Valley Art walk with featured Artist Katie Shaw. Dragon Child is an independent all ages modern day fantasy comic by Katie, where mythical creatures are real and the dragons have selected one unsuspecting human girl to be their ambassador to humanity. Cartoonist, Katie Shaw, also hand makes her own dragon characters into large adoptable plush toys and hand puppets to further bring the world of Dragon Child alive. The Dragon Child comic book series is available in both individual comic issues and trade paperback volumes. Dragon Child full color prints, coloring page sets, original pencil and inked art, stickers, and bookmarks by Katie Shaw are also available.
Artist Biography
Katie Shaw is a cartoonist who brings mythological creatures to life in her modern day all ages fantasy comic, Dragon Child. She grew up with a love for animation, illustrated books, and fantasy novels, but Katie wanted to tell her own fantastic stories. Her discovery of independent comics in Elementary School inspired Katie to share her stories in the form of comics. Katie created her own major for Sequential Art and studied under three Japanese manga artists in Tokyo, Japan while on an internship through St. Olaf College, teaching her many valuable techniques she uses to create comics today. She also found a talent for plush and puppet creation after she designed and made one of her dragon characters into a large plush for sale at her first comic convention in October, 2013.

Mill Valley Art Walk
We’re thrilled to be hosting a special reception for Chuck Whelon, the illustrator behind our Wylding Woods characters! Join us between 3:30–7:30pm to meet Chuck in person, explore his original artwork (available for sale), and pick up one of his fun and imaginative books for kids. It’s a great opportunity for aspiring artists—Chuck will be signing any books purchased during the event, and sharing a bit about his creative process with anyone curious about what it’s like to be a working illustrator.
Chuck Whelon creates comics, games, books, and more. He created the webcomic “Pewfell: The Worst Wizard on Urf”, which was one of the charter strips on ModernTales.com, and is currently running on Instagram @pewfell. He has written several series of activity books for Dover Publications, illustrated boardgames for Minion Games, and produced a set of seasonal search-and-find books that have been published worldwide. Since 2004, he has drawn covers, cartoons, maps, and monsters for Goodman Games. In 2020 I published “Urfspace: Cartoons of the Future“, a collection of sci-fi themed cartoons. There are now also three Urfspace™ art books and a music album: “The Future Sounds of Urfspace“, featuring original tracks from international artists, including cartoon band “Astrokitty and the Urfspace 5”.
