This year, we are expanding our programming to include a variety of one hour classes for school-aged children, in a variety of categories. These classes will be in accord with the visual arts standards for the state of Alabama. Each studio in this series will feature a different visual arts activity that engages the kids, while teaching them important skills. This series will be a great opportunity to show how the arts can overlap traditional learning methods. We suggest ages 8 & up attend these crafts, but please reach out to Molly Nelko at mnelko@kentuck.org to discuss accommodations for younger children. Children under 10 need to be accompanied by an adult. June will feature 8 classes: Session A: Saturday, June 4; 9:30-10:30 AM Painting to Music: Kids Movies--Express yourself through painting to music from kids movies.
