Welcome to your child’s first hands-on art history class! The teachers will explore great artists (e.g. Salvadore Dali, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Vincent Van Gogh and more) as well as various art techniques (e.g. modern, impressionist, pointillism). The children will learn simple art terms, and experience color, shape and texture each week using natural materials and mediums such as paint, clay, chalk, charcoal, and watercolors. Skills acquired include visual perception, critical thinking, language acquisition, vocabulary and problem solving. Increase your child’s love for art and artistic expression! We end the year with a gallery exhibition/art show!
