THE Spring school holidays are the perfect time for children of all ages to roll up their sleeves, fire-up their imaginations and get creative at the Shepparton Art Museum by signing up to a school holiday program.
SAM Spring Camp will make its popular return from September 19-30 and will deliver a range of exciting arts and crafts activities that will delight kids of all ages and abilities.
SAM engagement manager, Garbriella Calandro, enthusiastically says of the program, “SAM Spring Camp gives kids a space to have fun, gain new skills, and make friends while exploring their creative side. From artist-led ceramic sessions to upcycling everyday objects, kids can let their imaginations run wild at SAM these school holidays and gain the confidence to recreate some of the projects back at home.”
With programs ranging from a self-paced scavenger hunt to classes in creating everything from ceramics to wearable art and DIY kaleidoscopes, the Spring school holiday program has something for everyone.
An exciting opportunity for VCE studio arts and visual arts teachers is also on offer during the holidays at SAM with Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority’s, Dr Kathryn-Ekers, who will explore new subjects being introduced to VCE, while providing teachers with valuable insights into how these subjects can be successfully integrated into classrooms.
