Event
Young Creatives Arts Club by Musicollaborative
Musicollaborative Presents:
YOUNG CREATIVES ARTS CLUB
for Homeschoolers and Unschoolers Ages 6-12
Session III: "Tell me a story!"
Eight Wednesdays, 10a-2p, Jan. 21-Mar. 18 (No meeting Feb. 18) with half session options available
Hosted by City Park Movement and Art
Facilitated by Kaya Martínez, MME and
Freelance Writer Kari Harden
Participants will enjoy opportunities to explore vocal and instrumental music, storytelling, poetry, songwriting, illustration, drama and more within a small mixed-age group. Each child's learning journey will culminate in a final project of their choosing--a bound book, a recording, a storyboard or a dramatic performance.
In addition to group activities, there will be time for self selection from among a variety of hands-on literacy and musical centers for independent practice. Weather permitting, we'll enjoy lunches and nature exploration at nearby City Park each week. Registration includes all supplies and materials but participants are asked to provide their own lunches and water bottles.
Sibling discounts and payment plans are available. Email musiclabnola@gmail.com or call 504-942-7606 with any questions.
