While so many details revolving around the upcoming school year remain unknown, we’re happy to see that Creative Action is back this fall with a great new program — Creative Action Together. Kids can enjoy artistic activities while connecting with their peers outside of school. Additionally, the program provides parents with a few extra hours of guided engagement to keep kids productively entertained.

For many years, Creative Action has provided enriching after-school programs in local elementary schools offering children the opportunity to participate in a variety of fun, arts-based creativity classes. This fall, you can still count on their awesome program — now online and open to all children ages 5-11! Creative Action Together is a new virtual program that builds connections across differences and distance. Students will connect with friends, have fun, build confidence, and learn how they can play a part in making the world a better place!

Not your average arts program, Creative Action students get to enjoy a comprehensive enrichment experience in the arts and humanities including theatre, music, language arts, citizenship, geography and culture. During these creativity sessions, students try a variety of activities such as visual art, music, movement, puppetry, creative writing, acting and more with a team of trained professional teaching artists. Creative Action’s 4’Cs are at the core of all their programming in which students work to becoming a Creative Artist, Courageous Ally, Critical Thinker, and Confident Leader.

The program also provides parents with some much-needed engagement for their kiddos during the work day. The live programming begins August 24 and runs Monday-Thursday from 2:30 – 3:30 p.m. for grades K-2, and from 3:45 -5 p.m. for grades 3-5. This schedule can help parents and guardians focus on work or other necessities. The program is open to all children ages 5-11.

• Opportunity to connect with your school community through classes tailored to your campus!
• Activities from the same Creative Action staff you and your children know and love!
