Kids will learn about the many ways they can bring art to their communities through positive messages, environmental beauty, and interactive art. Young artists will place their projects in the community so others can enjoy them and design prototypes for larger-scale artworks that could be installed in community settings. Kids will experiment with a variety of art techniques to explore self-expression, artistic design, and creative problem solving, all while building empathic bonds with their fellow artists in the class.
