At ArtLab, our goal is to spark an interest in art and science. ArtLab is a safe space of self-expression, self-exploration, and imagination. Art and science are intrinsically linked, as their essence is discovery. Integrating science and visual art can provide students with the latitude to think, discover and make connections. This program is set up directly in the student's school.

​

​

​ArtLab classes are developmentally appropriate for students in elementary school. All our classes are offered once a week and last one hour. 

 

Art for K-2 (12 weeks)

During each class, students will make and take home an art project related to a science topic. This year we will be covering science topics such weather and the seasons, animals and their habitats, plants and fungi, space exploration, conservation and ecology, the water cycle, robots, and many more. Students will use mediums such as tempera paints, watercolors, oil pastels, chalk pastels, colored pencils, markers, pens, pencils and tempera paint sticks.  Through our projects, students not only have an opportunity to learn about science and art, but they are also able to develop their fine motor skills by participating in activities such as drawing, cutting, tearing paper, painting, threading and lacing, manipulating clay, etc. Practicing fine motor skills will help children have a solid foundation for their future everyday tasks and will have a positive impact in their core classes. This class is limited to 15 students.

​​​​​Digital animation for 3-6 (9 weeks)

​During this nine-week course, students will use the FlipaClip app to learn about the principles of animation, story boarding and character design.  This class is limited to 12 students.
