Arte Preescolar y Familiar 

En este programa, invitamos a niños de 3 a 6 años a hacer arte. En esta clase de arte continua basada en el juego, nos enfocamos en la socialización, la conexión, el aprendizaje sensorial y el fomento de la imaginación.

El arte juega un papel importante en el desarrollo de las habilidades motoras finas, la fuerza de las manos y la coordinación.

 

En este programa, nos enfocamos en la socialización, la conexión, el aprendizaje sensorial basado en el juego y el fomento de la imaginación.  Las clases comienzan con una historia compartida en grupo donde leemos un libro ilustrado sobre un artista, luego pasamos a la creación de arte.  

 

Dentro de nuestro trabajo artístico, los niños comprenden las líneas y las formas, el color, la acuarela, el grabado, el tejido, la escultura y otras formas de arte. Más allá de hacer obras de arte, nuestros artistas más jóvenes practican la autoexpresión y la creatividad con un propósito para prepararlos en sus viajes creativos. En estas lecciones, el proceso se trata del enfoque, no del producto.  

 

Las clases son muy pequeñas, con 8 niños por 1 maestro.

 

La clase es de una hora de duración, semanal y continua.

Information about the Student Exhibition 

Cultivate is excited to announce our annual Student Exhibition, a celebration of the remarkable talents within our artistic community. This showcase is a testament to the dedication and creativity of our students, who have been an integral part of our artistic journey.

Event Details:

Duration: The exhibition will run throughout the entire month of January, providing ample time for visitors to immerse themselves in the diverse range of artworks on display. 

Work will likely be curated by levels - elementary, teen, and adult, sharing the breadth and progression of skill, and so students can see the work of their peers and how they can advance, but also how they can grow in their art learning.  

Student Support: 

We will be hosting speaking sessions for interested K-12 students in January to guide/teach them how to speak about their work so they can proudly represent and share their work with the public at the reception.  

Public Opening:

Join us for the grand opening on January 13, a night filled with art, conversation, and community. This event is open to all members of the Cultivate family, including students, artists, and art enthusiasts from Grand Rapids and beyond.

Participation:

We extend an open invitation to all students of Cultivate to showcase their work. Whether you're a seasoned artist or just beginning your artistic journey, this exhibition is an opportunity to share your creativity with a wider audience.

About the Cultivate Education Program

Education is the center of everything we do at Cultivate.  We focus on the whole person - teaching art, but also social-emotional learning, and supporting a student of every age and skill to go to the next level. 
 
An educational team consisting of trained teachers and professional teaching artists, we share art courses from preschool-aged children to continuing education for adults.  

We are grateful to offer studio-based, fine art courses that actively teach elements of art and design, art history, and critique.  Our students of all ages share that they feel more confident in their art practice, connect with an art-loving community, and find new inspiration. 

No matter your skill level, you are welcome here.
