After school art camp offered at Woodstation United Methodist Church
The “Artsy After School Camp” invites children ages 5-12 to come and create at Woodstation United Methodist Church. The church is at 13198 Alabama Hwy in the Woodstation area of Ringgold.
Jennifer Hairston-Wolfe, camp director, said the program offers drawing and painting, sculpture, crafts, dance and Spanish lessons for elementary school children.
Wolfe is an experienced visual arts teacher and has taught in public middle schools in Clayton County and in Rockdale County. Her assistant, Shauna Altizer, is an experienced dancer and dance instructor.
Artsy Camp is open Monday – Thursday from 3 p.m. - 6 p.m. and will also be open on Friday from 3 p.m. – 6 p.m. after the Catoosa County high school football/ marching band season has concluded. Cost is $4/ hour for the camp. Snack and a homework time is from 3 p.m. – 4 p.m., artsy activities (art, dance and Spanish) are from 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. and playground time is from 5 p.m. - 5:45p.m.
Due to the close proximity, students are picked up at Woodstation Elementary School in the WUMC van and transported to the church for the camp, but parents are welcome to bring children to the church for the artsy activities at 4 p.m.
There will be a free Halloween-themed craft, Oct. 29 from 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. To register for the free craft project or for more information, go to artsyafterschoolcamp.weebly. com. or call 423-243-4085.
