Kindergarten art

Kindergarten Artists explore a wide variety of art materials and techniques throughout the year, including drawing, painting, mixed media, clay, weaving, and sculpture. We work on both 2D and 3D projects and many of our units of study complement the classroom curriculum. Many Kindergarten art projects initially focus on the elements of art and also incorporate art history, literature, and music.
