Artists for Kids Studio Art Academy -- Develops students as artists, and prepares them for post-secondary studies, through studio, classroom and off-site teaching, multi-media portfolio development and opportunities to learn from visiting artists.
Students enrolled in an Artists for Kids Studio Art Academy course will develop peak-performance skills and attitudes which will enable them to successfully enroll in a post-secondary institution of their choice upon graduation. Through the development of a personal portfolio each year, students will gain increasing confidence in their abilities as artists. In-depth exploration of drawing and painting, printmaking, and sculpture will enable the creation of work for annual year-end exhibitions. Through studio/classroom work, visits to artists studios, and post-secondary institutions, students will gain a better understanding of the role and commitment required to be a successful artist. Exposure to a variety of instructors/artists each term will add richness to studio activities.
