Each class will be capped at 12 students to allow for individual attention. We only offer full-day programming during February Vacation week. All instruction will take place inside the Eliot Schoolhouse. Lunch will take place two blocks down Eliot Street at Eliot Hall (7A Eliot Street). If the weather allows, students will have outdoor play time in the Schoolyard during their snack and lunch breaks.
Visual Arts (Morning Instruction)
For young artists who want to concentrate on specific skills in drawing, painting, and other 2D media. Students will improve their use of line, value, tone, color, proportion, depth, composition and more. They’ll explore a variety of materials and techniques while developing personal expression.
Woodworking (Afternoon Instruction)
For kids that want to learn or build upon the basics of woodworking. Children will build projects in wood with basic tools and techniques in an environment that emphasizes creativity and safety. Students will experience the pleasure of building things and completing them to take home.

I have done art all my life, having graduated from Boston Arts Academy and Lesley University. I have been with the Eliot School for nearly ten years, starting as a teaching assistant in 2015 and becoming a teacher in 2021. I have taught ages 4 to 18 in a variety of arts, with the desire to see anyone—from anywhere—embrace their creativity to its fullest extent.

I started woodworking a couple years ago when I began working as a teacher's aide for the Eliot School but it didn't take long to find out how much I enjoyed it. Whether it's making furniture or making toys, to me it's always enjoyable and especially rewarding to teach and help students make something they can be happy with and proud of at the end of the day.
