about Arts UmbrellaArts Umbrella programs allow children and youth access to the tangible benefits of arts education through the joys of creating and learning.

Children and youth that participate in the arts can:

• Gain a wider view of themselves and their opportunities in the world.• Develop self-confidence and self-worth.• Explore and develop creativity and innovation.• Develop an ability to make decisions independently.• Learn to set and achieve goals.• Improve their odds of success in all areas of their lives.

Through activities that are challenging, meaningful, and based on strong arts education principles, exposure to the arts can benefit our youngest citizens throughout their lives.

guidelines1. Arts Umbrella programs can be an intensive learning experience. As there is no

play-activity component to Arts Umbrella programs, it can be challenging for very young artists to participate for an entire day. Please consider your child’s needs and comfort level before registering for a full day of classes.

2. For Spring Break Programs: Children aged 3–4 years must have experience being in a classroom setting without a parent/guardian present.

3. If you register your child for the same classes in Session 1 and Session 2, they may encounter the same activities.

4. Full day participants are responsible for their own, peanut-free lunches and snacks. Participants 13 years and older will not be supervised during lunch break.

5. For safety reasons, participants require a basic understanding of the English language.

6. Information in this brochure is considered correct at time of printing, and may be subject to change. Please refer to www.artsumbrella.com for the most up-to-date information.

FEESANDDEADLINES• Withdrawals: A refund less $100 (full-day) or $50 (half-day) will be issued up to 2
