Artist-in-Residence

Artist-in-Residence

Bring an artist to your classroom. Programs in the arts support student’s own creativity and nurture a love of the Arts. Using a variety of art media, students develop fine motor skills while exploring the formal elements of line, shape, color, form and texture. Students write about their work and collect them in a portfolio.

These programs meet NYC performance standards for arts learning I, II & III as described in the “Blueprints for the Arts”.

For a full session by session outline of each of the below listed programs contact Susan Lim slim@cmom.org.
