Tiny Masters
We’re never too young to explore art.
Supporting Head Start Pre-K locations in Hardwick, Albany, and North Troy, the Tiny Masters program transforms the classroom into an art studio and guides the children in mindful artistic practice. These 3-5 year old students show us that it is never too early to start exploring art.
Developed and delivered by Rural Arts Collaborative, our curriculum introduces students to new materials, diverse techniques, and a range of artistic styles like impressionism, cubism, pop art and more. Through the program, they see how varied art can be and then they get to practice making their own masterpieces using what they've learned.
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up." Pablo Picasso
Anyone can bring the Tiny Masters program to their school, library, or playgroup. Inquire with us about hiring our teaching artist to come to your event.
