Half day creative arts immersion program designed specifically for the Pre-K child to explore the arts while developing cognitive, social, creative, and motor skills through drawing, painting, music, and creative movement. This multi-disciplinary arts curriculum provides an enriching educational experience as a stand-alone half day morning or afternoon program or as a companion program to augment and extend a pre-school day. Children will experience the arts in our newly designed preschool room and dance studio. In addition, children will view special exhibitions on display in our gallery. As an added bonus, RAC staff will walk Pre-K students to and from participating pre-schools as a way for your child to have a full day without you having to pick-up or drop off between nursery school and HDHP. Pro-rated registration is available. Please call or visit our website for a program information packet that outlines the program. A $400 deposit is required upon enrollment in addition to a current family membership.
