Creative Smorgasbord

@ ArtFarm (SOLD OUT)

Highlights from our Adventure (2/20/23)

Taste Different Creative Arts!

We’re thrilled to be partnering with ArtFarm Studios to provide an opportunity for students to try their hand at a variety of unique creative arts. They’ll come home with new experiences and amazing souvenirs (and maybe a new passion?)!

We’ll have five great local artists in-house. Students will get to pick four activities from the following five choices:

  • Beat making

  • Henna

  • Jewelry making

  • Encaustic painting (using hot wax and pigment)

  • Photography

We’ll divide the students into small groups and rotate them through each activity.

The idea of our adventure trips is to expose the students to all there is to discover out in the world. We're trying to 🔥spark🔥 their interest — perhaps in a future hobby, career, or mentor. We will take the best adventure trips and incorporate them into our full-time Acton Academy opening this fall.

This adventure is open to ages 8-14 and costs $80 per child (lunch and materials are included). Activity preferences will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
