About the Program
The Carthage Free Library started a Fine Arts Program in April 2011 for youth grades 3-12. The program has been quite successful averaging at least ten students per class!
The art class curriculum focuses on the visual arts integrating computer software and technology in addition to traditional hands on methods. Each month, a new topic and method/process is taught which will include computer-based and hands-on activities for every 1 1/2 hour session. These art lessons and activities fall under the NYS Standards for the Visual Arts.
There is a suggested donation of $10.00 per month per student. The donation helps cover the cost of the art supplies needed for the classes. With families more than 2 children, ask about our family discount. It is highly encouraged for each student to attend each class for the month. Although the curriculum is designed for students to attend each week, anyone can start the program at any time. The cost will be pro-rated depending on when the child joins the class. If you have any questions regarding the upcoming art classes, please email Jamie Peck [email protected] or call the Carthage Free Library 31-493-2620.
