| Teacher and Parent Comments: |
|
| I think programs like these are vital, with school budgets cutting art classes, etc... anything which encourages imagination should be appreciated by the public. There is no growth without imagination...
|
| This was a wonderful experience for the children to freely express themselves through painting and discussion using their imaginations and creativity.
|
| It was a session full of creativity and spirit, well done.
|
| I highly recommend continuing this program! It was fun, enriching, creative, hands-on, educational and varied. The students were given opportunities to create, communicate, think and use their imaginations. The pace of the morning was perfect! Sue and Lynda were awesome! They quickly earned the respect, admiration and full attention of the students. They were very organized and comfortable with what they had planned. The rapport with the children was exceptional. As for the adults, we had as much fun as the kids! I learned many new games and ideas that I am anxious to use! LONG LIVE ART JAM!
|
| We had a wonderful time at ART JAM. As a teacher I would love to have regular access to such a program (at least once a month).
