THE ART OF MAKING ART
|
The Art of Making Art workshop series is brought to you by local artist Glo Winters.
"I have loved art all of my life and have been drawing and creating art since I could hold a crayon. I believe creativity is a gift from the Great Creator and for some it comes out in the form of visual art - such as painting. Others create with words or food or build things. All of us are creative. Some artistic creatives have been stifled by the harsh or insensitive words of others and only need a positive art experience and a little encouragement to discover that gift has been there all the time, dormant but ready to sprout, grow and blossom in the right conditions. If you are drawn to creating art, then most likely you have the gift within you. Maybe you are already blooming in your art. Wherever you are, come join me in the Art of Making Art and let's flourish together!" |

CREATIVE STARTS

Creative Starts Music began in 2012 to provide quality, affordable music education classes for children. Angie Yates, founder, educator, and curriculum writer with over 20 years of experience, started Creative Starts as a way to instill the life-long love of music in children and families. Classes are designed to create enriching experiences that build musical skills through singing, playing instruments, movement, pretend play and exploring other fine arts. Each class encourages the child to gain the building blocks necessary to become a lifelong music maker, a creative thinker, reinforce school readiness skills and develop the whole child.
