Back to School Carnival 2010-2011

The time has come.  The school year is once again upon us and all of us are ready (including the kids).  As we do each year, we will be kicking off with our annual Back to School Carnival.  Miss Penny, Miss Joanie and all the regular favorites will be on hand for art and song while the snow cones and popcorn abound.  This year is going to be phenomenal.  We are excited that you were able to join us and look forward to kicking things off right.  Come on out to 7803 Laurel Avenue from 3:30-5:30pm and bring your camera.  You don’t want to miss the opportunity to take a picture of the four-year-old face-painted spider-man, clutching half a cherry snow cone with a mouth full of laffy taffy attempting a spin-art masterpeice while dancing to Miss Joanie’s potty song and stuffing his pockets full of popcorn . . . because he may turn out to be yours.  Have Fun!

The Famous Technique of Georges Seurat

Ms. Penny joined our classes Thursday and Friday afternoon to teach us about a french artist who used dots to create his paintings.  His name was Georges Seurat.  After we learned about his technique and examined one of his famous paintings, Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, we tried our hand at our own creation using his unique painting technique.  Some of us even put it into practice at the art center all by ourselves…there were snowmen made out of dots and other great creations too!
