CLASSES

Join us for a class to dive into new skills and learn more about our own creative minds.

Our classes allow Questers to dive deeper and work for multiple weeks towards a specific goal. Whether it’s an introduction to a new concept, or honing skills for larger scale projects, our advisors will guide tweens on their Quests of perseverance.

  • All Side Quest Social Club activities are tailored to tweens aged 9-13 years old. If your child is outside of that range, please email to discuss before purchasing.

    Address: 3411 W North Ave, Chicago, IL, 60647
    We are located on the South side of North Ave, just west of Kimball. The Side Quest logo is on the door, but it is under the awning that says “Nevermore Performance Space”. The door will remain locked at all times. Please ring the doorbell located above the door handle, and I will let you in and get your child checked-in for the day.

    Parking: There is a 30-minute Standing Zone on North Ave, just west of our front door. Feel free to utilize that with flashing lights for drop-off or pick-up.  

    Please do not drop-off more than 15 minutes before the scheduled time, and pick-up no later than 15 minutes after our end time.

    Child Release: Please note that we will not release your child to someone who is not listed on the Registration Form. We will ask to see a form of identification before releasing to verify the names on file.

    What to Pack: Being prepared for a class at Side Quest means bringing along any food/snacks you may need, and a water bottle. If you would like to bring any materials to elevate or enhance your project, you are welcome to bring those along.

    What to Leave at Home: Personal technology devices (cell phones, tablets, iPads, smart watches, etc.) If devices are brought to Side Quest, they will remain in your child’s locker during their time at Side Quest.

  • A few days before your camp begins, you will receive an email with any pertinent information for the group, including any allergies for the time we are together.

  • Classes are non-refundable as they are tailored specifically for the registered attendees.

Each week, class will start with a group discussion about rules and expectations, and a mentor or advisor will outline any daily goals for the class.

Group size will be decided based on the class activity, but most will range from 8-15 tweens. Since this is a social club, group work will always be suggested, and sometimes required to participate.

Class Questers are expected to participate in the group discussion and a clean-up at the end of the lesson.
