NEW!
Flamenco & Gypsy Culture for both teens and adults.
In this Week-long Art and Culture adventure with Elizabeth
Santos Read, learn the footwork (taconeo), arm movements,
and clapping in rhythm (palmas) needed for the magical dance
of Flamenco.
Each afternoon, explore the rich culture of Flamenco through
videos, gypsy music, and by decorating and using various props.
Learn
about and sample typical Spanish cuisine. For the end of the
Week performance, learn Sevillanas, the typical dance
of Andaluzia from the South of Spain. Adults can register for
the entire week or for individual Workshops. Expect to learn
a few words in Spanish! Hasta luego!

Another
First! Music & Art Week for Kids! Children spend the morning
with musician and teacher Meg Gister having a “musical
experience” with singing, movement and rhythm games. For a special
treat, children become “rock stars” as a local musician guides
the group to write a tune. Each afternoon is spent with professional
artists creating 2-D and 3-D Art forms. They’ll work with artist
Gloria Nilsson and draw from life using oil pastels, create
simple architectural drawings and a stylized portrait à la Picasso.
Participants then head over to artist Debra Lee’s World
of 3-D to sculpt with clay, be part of a paper-making workshop
and become architects, designing and creating their own model
of a building - be it practical or fantastical!. |
