ELEMENTARY EXPLORERS CLASS SERIES
GRADES K-2

Even though they are getting older, children need to stretch their imaginations. Did you know that between the ages of 6 and 8 your child‘s physical, social and mental skills are developing at a wildfire pace? Our classes are designed to cultivate this stage of the childhood experience: The ever-strengthening sense of self, and community. We will also get in some good practice at developing those cooperation and listening skills. They build all of this while also experiencing environmental and process drama!

All classes will culminate in a sharing of our favorite scenes reenacted the final day of classes for friends and family.

Acting One-Oh!-One

A professional Teaching Artist and Director will guide participants using creative drama techniques through the basics of acting, improvisation and character development which culminates with a one-act play presentation for family and friends.
