The Rome Art and Community Center is excited to announce our Homeschool Art Program is returning! Starting Thursday, October 23, this 10 week program (Ending Thursday, January 15) is tailored to engage young students in creative exploration through a dynamic and educational approach to art. Taught by certified K-12 teacher Sybil Preski, this program promises to be an enriching experience for students across multiple grade levels.
The program is divided into three potential levels:
- First Elementary (Grades K-3) : Students will explore self-expression, environmental awareness, and the elements of art. Projects will include self-portraits, landscapes, and nature-themed pieces, integrating math skills and environmental science.
- Second Level (Grades 4-6): Building on the foundation of the lower level, students will delve deeper into art history, study famous artists, and create more sophisticated 2-D and 3-D art using various mediums including found objects, oil pastels, and clay.
- Third Level (Grades 7-12): Students will explore the elements of art and principles of design in-depth. They’ll study art styles, artists, and how art can be used for self-expression, storytelling, and influencing culture. A collaborative art project will culminate in a group exhibit.
Each level of the program encourages creativity, collaboration, and cultural exploration, culminating in a group art exhibit. The program is open to home-schooled students and will run for 10 weeks at $195 for the full program, including supplies.
