Kids' Jean Jacket Design Project Sign-Ups
Hi and welcome to registration for the Jean Jacket Design Project!
This unique and fun hands-on creative kids' art experience is brought
to you at no cost through funding provided by the Pennsylvania
Rural Arts Alliance from the 1889 Foundation Creative Health
Impact Grant.
Before you sign up...
Here is some information about the project and what you can expect:
-
Each child may attend one session & must be registered. (The project is intended for ages 7 and up). The number of participants per session is limited to allow our teachers to provide the one-on-one help that is needed to allow each young artist to shine.
-
Your child's 2-hour session will take place at The Treehouse (276 Number Nine Road, Hastings, PA 16646). Drop-off is at 9:00AM and pick-up is at 11:00AM.
-
While with our kind, experienced and credentialed teachers, your child will learn about the design process, brainstorm cool jean jacket designs, learn art techniques, and create their favorite design on an actual jean jacket they can wear! The art experience is fully hands-on with total creative freedom - an array of tools and art supplies are provided so the kids can make any design a reality!
-
All participants' jean jackets will be displayed at a Finale Fashion Show Art Exhibition at The Treehouse on July 14, 2023 5-7PM. We ask all of the young artists to attend so they can receive positive feedback about their art from the community. This is an important part of the project because it helps to grow confidence in our creative youth, as they so deserve. As children complete their jean jackets, we will keep them at The Treehouse for the show and then return them to the kids when the show is over.
-
Because health is also an important component of the Creative Health Impact Grant (and because we are creating jean jackets), children who attend will learn about the importance of staying warm in cold weather. They will also receive "Keep Warm" items to take home.
