Art and Storytelling ages 3-5, Wednesdays, 9:30-11am

Begins January 11, 2012

Our class encourages children to explore their unique imagination inspired by themes found in stories.

Rachelle and Chaim begin each session with creative and interactive storytelling. We then shift the focus to making fun, art projects that are relevant to the story.

Students will use a variety of materials for their artwork including paint, clay, found objects, collage, digital media, etc., and learn about new techniques and traditions.

Pre-registration is encouraged.

The class time also correlates with Tanya’s Kripalu Yoga class, which allows parents/caregivers to take a yoga class while their child takes an art class. Register before the New Year, and get a FREE yoga class with Tanya.
