ART AFTER SCHOOL  is an innovative program that builds creativity and community through exploration of age-appropriate art projects. Offered in blocks of about six sessions per block (depending on the Church calendar), theAart After School - Artists at Work program welcomes children and youth who are currently in grades 1 and above. No previous art experience is necessary. A variety of art projects are offered that challenge the participants to imagine, create, observe, and interact with one another. Thanks to a generous grant from the Hubbard Foundation, Art After School is free.

Sessions are held on Wednesday afternoon, 3:30 - 5:00 p.m. in St. John's Church Parish Hall (entrance at end of driveway off Elm Street).  We’re looking forward to welcoming back young artists from last year’s program, our summer "Cow Camp", and getting to know new artists.

The projects this year will include a ―tag team‖ drawing game, learning how to create a fantasy town by using the magic vanishing point in order to draw with perspective, cre-ating colorful designs using Cray-pas and pens…and that’s just the beginning!

Session Blocks are:
Fall Block:  September 8 - October 13, 2010
Winter Block:  January 5 - February 9, 2011
Spring Block:  April 27 - June 1, 2011
