2010 MULTI-ARTS MORNINGS (ages 3-5)
Preschoolers dive into the arts and summertime fun at Arts
Together during Multi-Arts Mornings. Taught by professional arts educators,
each week preschoolers explore art, dance, drama and music, as well as
educational enrichment activities in our learning lab. Each week has a
different theme, which instructors use as the focus for their projects and
activities. Children registered for multiple weeks like the variety of having
something new to look forward to each week. Grouped by age in an informal and
nurturing setting, children delight in making new friends and trying new
activities. The student to teacher ratio for Multi-Arts Mornings is 5:1.
