A spot for your child in a session of your choice at Summer Arts at BFS. Summer Arts at Brooklyn Friends School offers a diverse and exciting art experience for children who will be entering 3rd through 7th grades in the Fall of 2019. Taught by working and exhibiting New York City artists, instructors are selected for their artistic accomplishments, as well as their experience working with children. Under the care and guidance of our staff, children explore their creativity and artistic abilities through an enriched interdisciplinary program such as woodworking, animation, sculpture, painting, digital media, and more while honing core competencies such as collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. In addition to participating in all of the exciting studio art classes being offered in each session, children go on field trips to NYC's world-class arts and cultural institutions, including outings to major museums, special exhibitions, and art studios of professional artists. Students enjoy recreational swimming two times a week at the Marriott Hotel pool, they play in two fully equipped gyms and on the rooftop playground at BFS, and have ample opportunities for free play and organized games. Your spot is subject to availability.
