To ensure there is still art in our school, our PTA provides monthly art lessons in every classroom through the Art Docent program! Isn't that amazing!?!
We rely on MANY volunteers to keep the program running. Volunteering to teach art is a great way to get into the classroom and support art in our schools.
Art docents are given a handbook full of lessons, guidelines and tips to help implement approximately one lesson per month. Plus, there are plenty of other resources, including the support of three coordinators and a myriad of experienced docents ready and willing to help.
Additionally, there will be an Art Docent Training session on Thursday, September 28th at 9-10am.
At the end of the year, the entire team of Art Docents puts on our annual Art Gala - where two items from every student are put on display for an evening viewing for all Canyon Creek families. The Art Gala will be on Friday, 5/11 at 6pm.
