Program Type
Residency
In this residency, “Farmer Alden”—dressed in overalls and a straw hat—educates students about various farm activities through brief video clips featuring his animals and gardens. Included are original sing-along songs and interactive discussions, where students explore the origins of different foods and materials produced on farms.
About Theme-based Residencies
Theme-based residencies are a series of five student-centered workshops focused on creating engaging, interactive arts-focused or arts-integrated experiences for children in PreK and Kindergarten. Each residency starts with either a “kickoff” assembly or an interactive workshop and culminates in an event where children share what they learned. Pricing starts at $2,300 + mileage. We may be able to assist you in securing grant and funding opportunities.
