SUMMARY:Natural Born Artists
DESCRIPTION:Children ages 1   4 and their caregivers\, join experienced teaching artist (and mom) Bella Weidner in thoughtfully prepared artful explorations. In each session\, Bella offers the critical balance of limited materials and unlimited\, child-centered learning processes\, so littles can engage deeply and learn quickly.

Snacks\, tea\, and storytime included! 6-week Session on Wednesdays April 9\, 16\, 23\, and May 7\, 14\, and 21. \n\n \n\nAbout the instructor: Bella Weidner has a BFA from Montserrat College of Art and an MAT from Maine College of Art and she is a certified K-12 Art Educator. She has taught art in various public schools as well as museums and alternative settings. Bella's teaching style is choice-based art education with open-ended and (whenever possible) recycled materials. Bella is also interested in blending nature-based education with arts education and is often bringing her students outside to use the natural world as their art studio.
