Course Offerings

Arts Corps workshops are derived from the following existing after-school courses in each art form and can be customized to meet the program partners' needs.

Dance
Young dancers can gain self-confidence and skills while they learn the history, foundation and fundamentals of the dance form practiced. They are asked to share their own talents as well as work together, building strong teamwork through collaboration on choreography and group performances.
*Offerings include Brazilian, Capoeira, hip-hop and break dance.
Digital Media
In digital media classes, spanning visual and audio technology, students will explore their communities and capture their own personal stories, working collaboratively to create a film, photo series or recording for exhibition.
*Offerings include digital photography, video production/filmmaking, as well as interdisciplinary forms such as animation, theatre/multimedia, audio recording and hip-hop production.
Music
In music classes, young people realize and experience the power of their own voices through rhythm and song. Students discover what is distinctive about themselves in an intuitive and spontaneous way and learn to bring their truest selves into the studio or onto the stage.
*Offerings include percussion & drumming, audio/music production, choir and voice & songwriting.
Poetry/Spoken Word
In our poetry classes, students work to creatively interpret their environment and articulate their experiences and inner truths through writing. They are given the opportunity to share their stories and hone their voices while exploring an array of poetic styles, the sound of language and the power of poetry when read aloud.
* Offerings include "Writes of Passage" and slam poetry as well as interdisciplinary classes such as lyrical hip-hop production.
Theatre
Theatre classes offer ways for students to fully embody their experience through experimentation, props, craft and performance.
*Offerings include acting, Shakespeare, puppetry, theatrical storytelling, circus arts, musical theatre and writing & performing your next work.
Visual Art
Visual art classes are a creative journey into a world of imaginative possibilities. On this journey, students will discover the way they see and move through the world through the process of expressing themselves while learning basic visual art techniques specific to the form being studied.
*Offerings include "Exploration in Art," creative clay sculpture, cartooning & illustration as well as interdisciplinary classes such as animation, digital photography and visual poetry.
