Class Description

Explore the world's rich tapestry of performance, art, and mythology in this dynamic course! Each week, we'll embark on a journey to a different country, delving into its unique cultural heritage and artistic traditions. Whether it's ancient masterpieces or contemporary dances, you'll discover the fascinating stories and vibrant creativity that define each destination. Each week, students will create a different craft or project based on what they learn. Get ready to broaden your horizons and find inspiration from cultures around the globe!

What to Expect: One week, students might "visit" China to learn about the myth of the Four Dragons and create a paper mâché dragon egg while listening to traditional Chinese music. The next week, they might "travel" to Greece and learn how to sculpt their own own statue.

This course is created and led by Liz Livingston, who holds a BA in Performance Studies and an MFA in Acting from ART at Harvard. Inspired her travels everywhere from Russia to West Texas, Liz brings the elements of wonder and respect to study each country and its peoples.

Instructor's reviews

My daughter actually switched to the other section of this class... 3rd-5th Grade, so I don't want to give this teacher a bad review but she had started in this section (K-2), so that's the review I was sent.

Overall, I found this class to be very disappointing. It was listed as a class taught by a Disney Princess and the class ended up having 3 different teachers during the course. This was confusing for the students and didn't offer any cohesiveness. The teachers couldn't even remember the kids names. At the end of the semester, very few songs or dances were actually taught and the kids mostly played games during the hours of the class. The class isn't inexpensive, so for this, I wouldn't gone somewhere else to give my daughter a better experience and have her learn something.

Harry Potter Camp was so much fun! My girls loved making wands and creating potions...and thinking of mischievous ways to stir trouble at Hogwarts! The creative programming was wonderful for this outdoor day camp and kept my girls busy and having a great time. Their only request was that the day lasted longer! They came home and continued creating ideas to keep the magic going. Thank you!

I feel that this course is not tailored for K-1 grade. K-1 graders need more moving around, especially after a long day at school, then was made possible by the instructor.
