As a result of this program, 7-12 grade after school class participants and adult class participants will experience new creative ways to express themselves and learn to stretch their ways of thinking using a variety of art mediums. They will learn new skills, apply a variety of techniques to discover what is unique to themselves, socialize with others and experience art together as they build relationships and a sense of community as art becomes an integral part of community life. Rebecca Dorman as Project Administrator and Executive Director of CWLC will work with office staff to create the evaluation survey and Rebecca will observe and interview participants during the class to insure it is a positive, engaging, growing experience and that relationships are being enjoyed and community built.
As a result of this program, youth through older adults experienced an increase in their knowledge and skill in each art form offered in a community setting, learned to support and encourage one another, to grow and expand their art knowledge and experience through trying something new, doing something that made them think outside of the box, and even though the art was difficult and different to do, it stretched their thinking to realize they CAN do hard things!.
