Next: Jan. 6 | TK, K, & 3
Every Tuesday | * Grades Alternate Weekly | ART@LUNCH SCHEDULE
Art@Lunch is a FUN & FREE program open to ALL students every Tuesday during their lunch period.
There is NO NEED TO SIGN UP – all they have to do is show up!
Wearing a spirit shirt or Art@Lunch t-shirt is optional on Tuesdays; kids can show their support and save their school shirts!
Students get to work with their hands and create with many different types of materials in a happy, lively, (and sometimes messy) musical atmosphere.
Not only do students get to open up and explore in a safe environment, they get to express themselves, take risks, and build confidence.
It’s not always about the end result; it’s the process — the experience!
We Need Art@Lunch Volunteers!
Art@Lunch was created and is run by volunteers and is exclusive to MATES.
Does your child love art, and do you want to spend some extra time together? Volunteers like you make this program possible!
We welcome and encourage parent support. You can volunteer your time, your expertise, and/or also offer materials. To help support Art@Lunch, please contact us at: ArtAtLunch@matesmcn.net, or use the SignUp Genius link below:
