s(ART)urday!

s(ART)urday!^TM is an online art session scheduled (you guess it, on Saturday!) for kids to engage with art by and with people of color.

The 30-minute online classes are an opportunity for all kids registered in the program to experience first-hand the power of representation in art.

Participants build up knowledge of a pivotal artwork by and with people of color through learning and creative thinking exercices that tap into their cultural fund of knowledge. The  group facilitator create a virtual space where kids engage in age-level appropriate conversations about the many identities of people of color around the world.

Kids.Think.Art uses art as a catalyst for change. During our programs, participants  develop critical thinking skills that are core to defining their systems of believes and actions.

Here are our goals for each session:

• Present curated artworks by and with people of color
• Create a safe virtual space for kids to explore issues specific to people of color around the world
• Guide age-appropriate discussion on major topics enlightened in a specific artwork
• Build up critical thinking, communication, and listening skills

The sessions take place on Saturday December 4, 11 and 18, 2021. The cost is $30 for the 3 sessions.
