is a program at Alleluia! in the fine arts. Our focus is on the child's creative self-expression through art
in a constructive, relaxed, and fun atmosphere. Students will explore different types of art media, art styles, as well as famous artists and their work. They will be introduced to the basics of composition, values, colors, and most importantly, have a great time creating art.
Each child works at his/her own pace, receiving help and assistance as needed. As with all of our classes, we provide a loving, Christian environment, affirming and nourishing the whole child. We encourage excellence in a supporting and accepting atmosphere. Each session concludes with an Art Show displaying the works each student has created. Family and friends are encouraged to attend.
