Description:

Our beloved Art Club led by tenured instructor Didi Johnson. For Grades K-5, the course runs 6 weeks , 4-5:30PM on Thursdays, January 25th-February 29th (moved back one week due to the winter storm!) 

Observe, investigate, hypothesize, and discover science through art! Create projects about microscopic to enormous wonders of the universe and everything in between. Explore fascinating questions: “Why do zebras have stripes?” “Why do we see rainbows?” Why are honeybees super pollinators?” Experiment with traditional and surprising materials like shaving cream, sodium, natural dyes, and more.
