Young At Art is a non-profit organization celebrating it’s 31st year of bringing the magic of art and enrichment to nearly 7,000 students across the South Bay. Thanks to the Grand View Families and PTA’s generous support, our students will have the opportunity to create six rich and meaningful art projects. During each one-hour session, the students will learn about various artists, the associated art history and will experiment with a variety of media and techniques.

Young at Art is based on the belief that art education should promote individual expression by providing the opportunity, the materials and the process from which children can create their own unique solutions. The art experience for children should exercise their powers of observation and imagination. It should stimulate their motivation to learn, to make choices, to be flexible and to adapt from an unknown to a known. Young at Art encourages our children to think and create in their own unique way. We focus on the journey and the process of art… not the finished product. In art…there are no mistakes.

Here are the six upcoming Young at Art projects for the 2012-2013 school year.
