We are proud to share about the visiting artist program!

    We are excited that the Visiting Artist Program (VAP) has continued for the 2024-2025 school year!  This program features local artists visiting the school monthly to teach, demonstrate and create projects with the students.  This program provides students the opportunity to learn and develop unique skills alongside our talented artists.  So far this school year the children have engaged in Tai Chi, drawing, clay work and wire art.   The students will experience sessions through the end of the year including jewelry making, acting/improv, sound installation and more! These meaningful experiences enhanced the already wonderful art and music program at the school and create fond memories and beautiful art that is reflected throughout the school.  A huge thank you to the Visiting Artists and volunteers that make this happen!  We appreciate you sharing your time, talent and enthusiasm!
