Workshops

Kids Creative Workshops use the arts and peace education to explore, educate and create.  Our workshops build confidence and community by engaging youth and adults in the collaborative creative process and offer tools, strategies and techniques for a range of topics from Conflict Resolution to Story-Telling.  Kids Creative Workshops are rooted in our peace education philosophy where “all ideas are good” and culminate with a performance, sharing or take away.

Workshops are available as:
• 1-Day Workshops
• 5-Day Workshops
• 10-Day Workshops
• Weekend Workshops
• Teaching Artist Residency (Kids Creative teaching artists visit your site regularly 
   over a semester)
• Or work with us to customize a program to fit your needs!
