SUMMARY:After School Art Club with Carole Pearlman
DESCRIPTION:Calling all artists! This after-school art class will not only provide an incredible outlet for self-expression but also help students to develop motor skills\, visual-spatial skills\, and problem-solving skills. Each week a different artist will be featured to inspire students to create their own unique piece of art. This class can get messy\, so please wear old clothing or bring an apron/smock. For grades K – 3rd \nCarole Pearlman’s lifelong fascination with creativity began as a child\, in a neighborhood art class\, where making art in the backyard was the only agenda for an entire summer. Many art classes later Carole completed a BFA in painting\, a MEd in Educational Therapy\, and an MA in Developmental Psychology. Integrating the disciplines of art\, education\, and psychology Carole developed The Joy of Creativity Art program. Carole works as a facilitator of creativity with students ages 4 to 84! Through her teaching\, research\, and daily practice\, she believes that being creative is an essential part of a balanced life. Carole is a professional artist and certified teacher.

SUMMARY:Drawing & Painting for Teens with Joalida Smit
DESCRIPTION:These sessions will guide your teen to find their unique voice and individual style. Bring your own ideas or work on a contemporary portrait from materials in my studio. We will explore different mediums\, techniques and genres  in a fun supportive environment\, where your budding artist can develop and grow at their own pace. Ages 12 – 17 \n*Your child may be asked to leave if they do not comply with the rules of the art room. \nWhy take an art class?\n \nTeens can benefit from taking an art class for a variety of reasons. It supports cognitive and emotional development. In particular\, it facilitates executive functioning through planning and organising ideas and solving problems as they emerge during the process.  It is a stress-release and can be therapeutic\,providing a unique way for teens to communicate thoughts\, emotions\, and ideas that might be difficult to express through words alone. It builds self-esteem\, facilitates personal growth and social-emotional development as budding artists develop their skills in the presence of others. \nRegardless of their career aspirations\, engaging in artistic activities within a class environment can contribute to a teen’s overall personal development and well-being. \nPhoto credit of Joalida: James Gustin \n  \n  \n
