The goal of the Explore Art class is to give students additional time to complete their art and embellish it by combining media such as glitter, paint, pencil and colored pencils, watercolors, acrylics, markers, and other imaginative items. Students will learn new techniques such as resist painting, layering and creating value, texture building, and more.

As in all Thrive classes there is no critique, commentary or competition. In this
safe environment students learn that they can follow their instincts, explore new ideas and take
chances in their work without fear of criticism. To honor and celebrate each child's learning,
students are invited to participate in our Spring Art Walk.
