Finding Your Place in Art

In Art at the Center, we always provide several activities in one session. That way we give children choices and they have opportunity to experience various materials. We at the same time observe their flow and preference toward different tasks. Children are welcome to shift to another art experiential after they are done with the artwork they are working on. 
They may feel like doing collage on your CD case!

You can also draw on the light table.

Kids can feel more related to environment. How their drawings interact with light and shapes.

"Can I save this?" Though asking for that, the boy is willing to accept taking picture of what he made and then put the clay back into a ball. 
I believe that when we feel free to do things we like, that's where inspire us most. Children in Art at the Center learn to find their spot in making art, and the process is similar to finding their own role in a group. In this kind of environment, they can truly indulge themselves in art without too much grownups' instructions and peer pressure, really get to experience their possibilities in art.
