Lunch & Snacks

The JMU Summer Art Education Program provides exciting

art courses for children ages 6-17. 2011 classes will be held

June 20-23 and June 27-30, with optional Friday classes, on the

JMU campus. Students who have completed kindergarten may register for the classes listed in this brochure. Certified art educators will guide

students through an intensive four–day course, providing a

solid foundation for creating art. Morning classes are from

9am–noon; afternoon classes are from 1-4pm. Each week will

end with an exhibit/reception on Thursday from 4-5pm.

Enrollment is limited to ten students per class and is on a

first–come, first–served basis.

Students will work with certified art teachers as they

learn to see art, create art, understand art, and make

informed judgments about art. Students will learn

how images have been used to communicate

important ideas, thoughts, and feelings throughout

history and into contemporary times. The lessons

demonstrate that education in the arts is fundamental

to language acquisition, creative thinking, and an

educated imagination.
