  After School Multi-Week ART-ventures.

     We believe artistic enrichment is a crucial element of a great education. Through the process of creating art, children expand their minds, they make discoveries, they thrive! Studies show that through the joy of creative art experiences, children develop essential life-long skills, such as creative problem solving, out-of-the-box thinking, expressiveness, and rich imaginations. Our programs provide hands-on art-based experiences enjoyed in a relaxing and encouraging setting. With a dash of whimsy and a dollop of fun, we help art explorers think creatively about art and the amazing role it plays in our wonderful world! We offer multi-week programs that range in duration from 4 to 12 weeks, and take place on the same day each week, most often right after school at your school. Each program provides a huge variety of high quality art experiences within a single exciting theme, for example, "Art-ventures in the Rainforest", "Where the Wild Things Art" and "Art-ventures Around the World". The classes are also provided at community centers on any weekday or on Saturdays. Check our site for schedule, more information and to sign up today! (less) ... Read more

  Learning Through Art at The Guggenheim!

     A Program of the Gail May Engelberg Center for Arts Education Learning Through Art (LTA) is the Guggenheim’s hallmark artist-in-residency program. The program sends experienced teaching artists into New York City public schools where they collaborate with classroom teachers to develop, facilitate, and integrate art projects into the school curriculum. During the twenty-week, in-school residencies, students throughout the five boroughs examine, discuss, and create works of art. Visits to the Guggenheim support the residencies, offering new insights into art and challenging students to think critically about art and ideas. At the end of the residency, selected student works are presented in the annual A Year with Children exhibition held at the Guggenheim Museum. LTA was founded in 1970 by Natalie K. Lieberman in response to the elimination of art and music programs from New York City public schools. Since then, LTA has served over 150,000 students from diverse economic and cultural backgrounds in all five boroughs of New York City. (less) ... Read more

  Chores made easy.... That's a great idea!! Kids want to be responsible; they want to have a purpose and independence, but somehow us parents made it ok for them to forget those very same values we were raised with. If there were a way to create a craving in children to do their chores, wouldn't you want to experience that for yourself? It's like a snowball that starts out as an awkward shy kid that gets nudged down the mountain. One cycle at a time getting bigger, stronger, and gaining momentum to make smart choices, and take care of themselves because they've learned just how great that feels, for themselves. We're not saying our apps are magic, but from day one the goal has been the same. Help families work together. Help kids find energy in being responsible and taking control in productive ways. They need it... The world is really complicated these days but there's nothing more precious than raising kids and having a young family. I know I personally miss those days. Kids are growing up in a time and space that we have yet to truly understand but one thing is certain, technology has a grip on every generation these days so we should learn to embrace, and how best to use it. Download the app for free. Give it a try and if you don't love it just let us know why and we'll fix it. (less) ... Read more
