The Mission of The Country Day Creative Arts Program is to utilize the power of art to spark personal growth and an appreciation for the uniqueness of each individual who participates. Together, artist/teachers and children create a colorful, culturally diverse learning community, filled with joy, wonder, courage, and surprise. Having respect for one another cultivates an open, safe environment for propelling ourselves into artistic inquiry, inventiveness, and risk-taking. As a result, we liberate the creative spirit and gain confidence, independence, and self-esteem.
