Music, dance and art
Let's dance, play, and make art! We’ll create a favorite dinosaur each week, make sketches, and then paint our dinosaurs on BIG pieces of cardboard -- big enough to dance with! We'll explore what they eat, who their enemies are, and how long they lived. We'll use the soundtrack from Jurassic Park, written by American composer and conductor John Williams. With 54 Academy Award nominations, only Walt Disney has received more award nominations.Instructor: Janet Beals
Janet Beals Orejudos is a process artist, teacher, and facilitator. She has taught in summer camp, year round programs, and Adaptive Recreation with C'ville Parks & Rec, offering 3-14 year olds classes in Beginning and Youth Sculpture, Collage, Home School Art, Paint Like Picasso, and Open Studio. Janet comes from Chicago's Open Studio Project, offering process art and social emotional skills through art to disadvantaged and other diverse populations. Process art, unlike traditional art, focuses on the experience of artmaking rather than the final product. Therefore, there is no "bad art," just a piece with a story or a message. Although classes may have a theme (Dinosaurs, Self Portraits, Dia de los Muertos, Martin Luther King), each child is free to express it in her own way. We honor each child's artistic vision. Classes use unusual materials and techniques when possible, and aim for creativity, learning, and self determination. Janet is open to students with special needs and communication disorders, and children outside the age parameters of the class.
