Art Masterpiece program information

SCA Art Masterpiece Program

The Art Masterpiece program is designed to introduce significant works of art and artists to children and build an appreciation for fine art while enhancing their lessons in Social Studies, Science, Geography and other subjects.

This program is administered and presented by parent volunteers, in cooperation with teachers.

In a nutshell, a parent presents a 5-15 minute discussion about a masterpiece, including the artist, the medium and/or technique used as well as the piece itself. The discussion can be based on a lesson plan available or developed by the parent. The parent will have a print of the art masterpiece available to show the class. These prints are stored in our art closet in the cafeteria. The lesson includes a project for the children to complete. The project is based on the technique or inspiration of the masterpiece. Basic supplies are provided in the art room.

Please email Crystal Cruse, Deb Wead or Sharon Roe for any questions.
