SIDE STREET STUDIO ARTS
Donde crea Elgin
Verano 2023 Educación artística gratuita para jóvenes
Cada año, Side Street Studio Arts tiene el placer de acoger a niños de distintas edades en programas de educación artística de verano. Cada semana los jóvenes artistas crean obras en tornoel tema de esa semana y también disfruta de un poco de diversión bajo el sol con otros artistas jóvenes!
Side Street tiene su propia programación y se asocia con el Distrito Escolar U-46 para llevar el arte a una comunidad aún más grande.
Side Street se complace en ofrecer toda la programación de forma gratuita para aquellos ubicados dentro de 10 millas de nuestra ubicación en el centro de Elgin. Esperamos que esto permita incluso más artistas jóvenes encuentren su voz creativa a través de la exploración.
Estamos encantados de continuar con esta programación gratuita en 2023. Este ha sido nuestro sueño desde que abrimos Side Street en 2013. Estas clases son absolutamente gratuitas para las familias de nuestra área. Si puede apoyar esta programación con una donación de cualquier tamaño, visítenos en nuestro sitio web.AQUÍ.
