Sep'09 “小小艺术家” 生活营

“小小艺术家” 生活营
19&20/9/2009
8:30am-5:00pm, 9:00am-5:00pm

每个孩子都是天生的艺术家!然而,孩子们与生俱来的创作天分,也正随着填鸭式的刻板教育,急速磨灭消失。

秉着每个孩子都是天生艺术家的信念,我们把艺术创作的自由交还给孩子,为他们提供一个自由创作的环境,以寻回人类与生俱来的创作潜能。

绘画技巧可以学习,手工才艺可以锻炼、唯独创意,既不能学,也无法教。

在这个生活营,我们所注重的,并非技巧上的学习,而是发掘,发掘那连孩子都早已遗忘的天分……

活动内容:
猫猫画画、小小设计师、人从哪儿来?、魔法面具、蹦蹦跳跳来作画、动一动、团康

活动目标:
1. 通过艺术活动激发个人潜藏的创意
2. 培养鉴赏艺术的能力
3. 培养独立思考及独立创作的自信
4.通过艺术了解自己

费用: RM180
15/8/2009前或三人集体报名:RM150/人
人数: 30人
对象: 9岁至12岁
地点: 26, Jln BU 7/1, Bandar Utama, 47800 PJ
