ADAPTIVE ART & CLAY CLASSES -
SESSION: A 1-on-1 lesson with a pediatric physical therapist turned ceramic artist.
Projects are adapted to each child's abilities, taking into consideration individual challenges. Creating with clay can be a sensory
experience, builds upper body strength & coordination, challenges the imagination, teaches emotional flexibility & promotes multitasking.
The goal is for your child to experience these benefits while having fun creating functional projects out of clay, paint, fabric and other mediums. Weekly A.R.T.S. classes are now held in New London at Colonial Place, 255 Newport Rd. Unit #8, New London, NH, 526-6699. COST: $30 for 1 hour individual or small group session RESPITE OPPORTUNITIES -
Our classes & camps are designed to give parents a "much needed break". There are indoor & outdoor spaces available for parents to access our Lending
Library & Resource Corner, have an informal play group or support group with other families, or just quietly get some work done. Local community
agencies such as Pathways offer families Respite Funds. A.R.T.S. accepts this reduced respite rate to allow families to participate in
all of our programs. Please contact us for more information on classes. You may register on-line or download a form and mail to us.

THERAPEUTIC PLAY ART
SESSION: Art projects are adapted to your child's abilities. Creating with various types of clay, paint & art materials offers your child an
opportunity for sensory play & creative curiosity. Projects are designed to challenge the imagination, stimulate speech, encourage interactive
play & social interaction with peers. The goal is for your child to experience these benefits while creating functional art projects. Camp is run by Cindy Best, a pediatric physical therapist turned ceramic artist. She is assisted by Carol MacDonald, a retired teacher and "Snack & Story Lady Extraordinaire". Other health care professionals and artists are subcontracted to assist, and a junior apprentice serves as both a mentor to the children & a camp assistant. Summer camps are ideally designed for children with special needs ages 4 to 10 years old. Exceptions are considered. Camps are run throughout the summer months.
Following is the Summer 2012 schedule: COST: $250 for the session. Cost includes all art project materials, firing of clay projects, instruction, sensorimotor play activities & snack. Please contact us for more information on Summer Camps. You may register on-line or download a form and mail to us.

Now that we are an "official 503C organization", we are working on obtaining
grant money so we can offer scholarships. Local organizations such as
Community Bridges and
Pathways have granted A.R.T.S. students scholarships
to attend summer camp.
