Art Imagination

Art Imagination is an extension of Somerset's art classes, teaching students about artists who work in a specific medium and style, and then helping them to create in a similar way. It is an opportunity for volunteers to share their love of the arts with students. What requires only a little of your time and energy, results in engaged children with a passion for having fun and learning with art!

Our monthly meetings, hands-on instructions and pre-made lesson plans make it easy for new-comers to start working in the classroom right away. Come join in the fun and get your creative juices flowing!

Volunteer Time: 2 - 8 hours/month.
