We will continue to offer our ever popular summer program. It will take
place at Tilly Foster Farm. This year we will offer the program in 2 week
sessions. Students must enroll for all 8 days of the session.
Classes are taught in a non-competitive environment by qualified
instructors who emphasize process over product and encourage students
to enjoy the creative experience in ways that are unique and individual.
Students will enjoy a broad range of projects in drawing, painting, sculpture,
mixed media, pottery and more. Teachers will incorporate multi-cultural
music, movement, discussion and drama in some of the activities.
$360/$350 PAC members per session.
