First Day with the Art Students

 Today was the first day of the Herron art students visiting the Oak class.  They will be visiting every Thursday.  They lead an art activity with a small group of children for the first half hour. Then, they observe the children for the second half hour.

Each child shared their favorite part of their activity.

Ethan - “Putting the tissue paper on.”

Talia - “Making the unicorn and the rainbow on the paper.”

Lily - “When I was putting the dot thingy on the paper.”

Maeve - “The paper”

Solly - “The paper”

Elkie - “Putting the water on the tissue paper”

Sophie - Drawing a unicorn”

Louie - “My favorite part was drawing the unicorn”

Ben - “Cutting out the heart shape”

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Herron School of Art and Design Graduate Art Therapy program is excited to be able to provide art enrichment activities for your child. The program will take place every Thursday January 23rd- February 27th from 10-11am. Through our Child and Adolescent Development course (HER-T-505) our graduate students will be learning about creative development in children and translating this knowledge at HHAI through art enrichment activities. Our students will be working within the classrooms and/or working with students individually or in small groups. Our students will NOT be providing therapy services or diagnostic criteria for the children. The families will be provided with a summary of the enrichment activities and at home activities to encourage creativity.

Bailee Taylor, Adjunct Professor, will be facilitating the program and is the course instructor. Contact information is provided below for any questions or concerns.

We look forward to this exciting opportunity!
