EVENING PROGRAM – SATURDAY
Teach, share, create! This is a time to share the arts and learn from each other. What have you found successful to incorporate the arts in community activities?
We invite you to bring and teach/share music & art with the group – interactive is best! Some ideas: teach a song, teach a dance, lead the group in a visual art (coordinate supplies with registration), share a game that has worked with your children or JY classes, lead us in an icebreaker activity. The goal is to inspire & encourage the friends to try new ideas in their own communities. Please sign up at registration.
