ALL DAY Art for teens
This program is coming out of years of working with Sirin’s awesome teenage students – which has given us both insight and appreciation for the challenges they face and their need for a safe and fun environment. And while our teens (and pre-teens) are great at being mindful and patient around younger students, they do sometimes need a space on their own. That’s exactly what we are going to offer with this extended day intensive program – a lot of space (physical and mental), and of course – a lot of art!
On our field trips to the museum (for example, The Walters, BMA) will have an opportunity to study our chosen subject in depth, have discussions, and compare our observations. Sketching and learning from actual masterpieces is an important part of our program. Later we will take our visual notes back to the studio as inspiration for an original project. We also will be sketching and painting in the parks (Kinder Farm Park near the studio and/or Cylburn Arboretum in Baltimore). Our studio projects will also include a still life and a mixed media or 3D project. As a result, we should end the week with a few quality pieces for an art portfolio.
Another goal, just as important in our view, is to create a quality (and mostly “unplugged”) social environment where our students can enjoy the company of like-minded creative people and be present together. In addition to the lunch and snacks students bring from home, we also will provide delicious warm home cooked meals every day (included in the tuition).
