Volunteers needed to join the 2021-2022 Explore Art team!
Volunteers are needed to put together monthly art lessons, including gathering supplies and creating a PowerPoint presentation (templates and ideas available), and coordinate with the class teacher on best approach to implementing the lesson (via Teams or by teacher). In the past, volunteers have taught the lessons, but this year they are not allowed in the classroom due to COVID-19 restrictions. Click here to sign up!
Explore Art is a volunteer–based art program provided by the Samantha Smith PTSA to support our continued effort in encouraging students to develop their own creativity and divergent thinking. The main focus of Explore Art is to introduce a variety of art concepts, mediums, and artists while providing an opportunity to learn through exploration.
Our goal is to encourage students to discover their own interests and skills, while emphasizing that the process of learning art is valued over the end product.
