In a world of increasing uncertainty, creativity is more important than ever. Creativity helps us navigate the unknown and build a better future. 

--James McCrae, The Art of You


Creative expression is essential for every human being. It doesn’t matter if you already see yourself as an artist, or if you erroneously believe that you have no artistic talent or creativity. The truth is, it’s not about being good at creativity. It’s about creativity being good for you! 

The busy pace of modern life rarely affords us the sustained time to slow down and listen to the subtle creative impulses that are essential for balance and well-being. Project Week gives us the unique opportunity to step outside of our normal routines so that we can learn more about ourselves through the process of trying something new along with others. 

This project, The Art of You, provides a welcoming art studio environment where you can grow your creativity among a community of fellow students. In this project we invite you to strengthen your creativity and artistic expression through the fun and forgiving medium of polymer clay. 

This project offers a chance to explore artistic expression, create unique items, and contribute to a fundraising art sale. Students will receive their own clay and tools, learn new techniques, and enjoy the freedom to design personal projects. Join us for a week of creativity, self-discovery, and community connection!
