This week we started out with The Riverside Guitar Quartet. They were four guys who could really play a variety of music on guitar. On Tuesday we listened to jazz by The Kelly-Scott Jazz 6-tet. The kids loved that!
Wednesday was a Japanese storyteller named Kuniko Yamamoto.
On Thursday we watched the muralist Cliff Beaman as he drew beautiful pictures from chalk (with music in the background.)
On Friday we were able to see Tom Sapp. He is a graphic designer who has made many characters for mascots.
He even created Chets Creek a mascot of their own!
The kids loved the programs. On Friday night we celebrate with a family night of Arts Extravaganza.
The kids will have opportunities to make different things with their parents and see other types of art being done at the same time such as pottery.
We also have a silent auction where anyone can bid on themed baskets put together by each classroom. You would be amazed at them!
It is a fun filled week followed by a great night. What a great opportunity to enrich our children.
