Showcase Days Wrap up our 2011 Spring Program
Working in a variety of arts disciplines, DAREarts students grew to be strong critical thinkers, eager to unleash their potential into the world. The spring program wrapped up with a special showcase day for each grade to express what they learned through storytelling, dance, drama, music and artwork. Captured on film, it leaves each child with a memento of their experiences to share with family and peers.
Grade 8s showed confidence and individuality by showing how one can remove society’s imposed masks through drama, B-boy/girl dance pieces and a song that they wrote and rapped. The grade 7s pushed ahead to recreate dance, drama, and music pieces with a Glee-inspired introduction. Younger grades demonstrated teamwork, cooperation, discipline and risk taking through their performances. Visit our Daily Blog for more.

All-The-Arts is a 5-year program of out-of-school workshops for children aged 9 – 14, who are challenged by life circumstances. Hands-on participation in all the arts - Visual Art, Architecture, Music, Dance, Drama, Literature, Fashion/Design and Culinary Arts, and interaction with arts professionals, leads the children to discover their abilities while building self-esteem and motivation. The children share their experiences with their peers, with support from their teachers, and lead others in shaping a vibrant community.

DAREarts helped me become a leader because when I presented what I learned to my class, I was teaching them and leading the class.
