Imaginative
thought increases children’s ability to sense the magic in what they
experience. As children explore the inner mysteries of an image, a
sound, a word, or a movement, they expand their way of perceiving and
knowing our world. Their creative process unfolds.
Thematic Workshops Through movement, poetry and the visual arts, children explore their imaginations using a theme such as "Echoes". The emphasis of the workshop is on cultivating our sense of wonder and our desire for attentiveness. As we embark on our journey towards expressing our innermost discoveries, we ask questions, share thoughts, and explore our feelings.
Part
of the sessions are held outdoors in the gardens and woods where the
children can make initial observations and gather materials.
In the studio, the children develop, explore and play with ideas.
The works of art created thus reflect the journeys taken, paths chosen,
interests, intrigues, and the children’s own perspective and
understanding of the theme.
An exhibition of the art work, an accompanying booklet of poetry and a poetry reading bring the week long workshop to a close.
