Schedule:
Our young artists attend class # times per week/6 day cycle.
Curriculum:
As a process-focused artist and arts educator, the emphasis in our art room is on the creative process. The process is where artistic habits, social-emotional lessons, and creative problem solving are born. The look of a final product is secondary to what is learned in the process. This allows young children to learn curiosity and confidence in their own creations as they begin to learn skills that will refine that final product in the future, fine motor skills (ie. holding a paintbrush in a variety of ways, deliberate movement of their hands) are emphasized in primary art. Along with basic art vocabulary, introduction of a large variety of media (painting, drawing, sculpture, clay, etc.) contemporary artist study and sensory exploration.
