These weeklong, multi-arts camps for ages 6-8 and 9-11 give young artists the opportunity to explore a variety of mediums and techniques under the guidance of talented, expert educators. Devoting half the day to creating 2D- and the other half to 3D-art, campers will spend their whole week fully immersed in age-appropriate projects inspired by weekly themes. From drawing and painting to clay and sculpture, this camp creates a dynamic experience for the budding and enthusiastic artist alike. Stay up to date on announcements about summer programming by signing up for our newsletter. Registration begins January 5.
This multi-arts mini session gives young artists the opportunity to explore a variety of mediums and techniques under the guidance of talented, expert educators.

Campers will work with paint, plaster, recycled materials, and more to create artwork inspired by all things pop culture, drawing inspiration from artists like Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and Roy Lichtenstein. This camp creates a dynamic and engaging experience for budding and enthusiastic artists alike. Campers will end their three-day session with an art show to share their work with family and friends.
Danceworks Generations is an intergenerational, multi-arts residency that partners second and third grade students and seniors in memory care, nursing homes or other senior centered sites. Together they build community through dance, visual art, and other art disciplines.
Can more than 1 group participate? Yes! Participating sites/shcools can have multiple 2nd/3rd grade classrooms of up to 36 participate. Senior sites may have multiple sessions with up to 24 participants. An additional fee will be charged and extra classes are only available if the corresponding site partner is available.
Can we combine classrooms so that multiple classrooms can participate? No. Over our 30 years of community engagement, we have discovered that the most successful classes come from the same classroom. Often when multiple classes are joined there are more challenges with teamwork and regular attendance at scheduled classes. If this is the only option for your school please contact Community Programs Manager Jessica Fastabend at jfast...@danceworksmke.org.
Can we hold our classes after school? Due to the nature of the program the program can only be done during the school day. Students are bussed to and from their partner site and do not have after school availability due to regular school drop off.
What is the program cost? Each classroom/adult site of up to 36 participants or 24 for seniors, is $900 and includes 12 in person shared sessions per school year as well as busing and all art supplies. Danceworks never turns away an interested school or site please reach out to us with further questions regarding program cost.
What does the school site/site need to provide for the program? Generations partner schools are responsible for their own permission slips and appropriate supervision on the bus to and from the senior partner site. Senior sites provide a space for dancing with tables available for visual art projects.
Do students have to finish the program if they are uninterested? Over the years we have found that the students that are the most reticent at first become classroom leaders. Danceworks asks that the program not be used as reward/punishment and that should a student need to be removed from the program that the Danceworks Teaching Artist is included in that decision.
Can we use outside funding to pay for the program? As stated above we do not turn away schools and will work with you to bring Generations to your school. We ask that our partner schools check with us before seeking outside funding as it may interfere with our larger program fundraising plans. We will not invoice a third party.
What happens if we have a snow day or other cancellations? Danceworks will provide make-up classes due to an emergency cancellation (snow days, seniors needing to quarantine etcetera). If a bus is not available for the make-up class we will provide individual site classes (i.e. Adults at their site with no kids and vice versa). Cancellations by site or school with less than 24 hours notice will not be made up. This may incur an additional cancellation fee for the bus.

N2 - In this article digital artist and filmmaker Iqbal Barkat discusses his new work Terrorist/Apostate, a multi-arts project, with scholars Katie Lavers and Jon Burtt. Terrorist/Apostate is based on the lived experience of his collaborator, Lebanese Australian actor Fadi Alameddin. It explores the tensions that arise as the central character begins to question his faith and his identity as a Muslim in Western Sydney. Barkat discusses how the play is informed by the critical discourse between different, often polarized, readings of Islam across a wide range of media. In particular he suggests that contemporary discussions of Islam by Muslim writers including feminists, humanitarians, LBGTI community members, and religious scholars reveal a more complex and nuanced idea of Islam than the reductive 'popular critiques' presented by many western commentators, and that authors such as Tariq Ali, Fatema Mernissi, and Nawal El Saadawi engage with the notion that there never has been a single idea of what constitutes Islam, but rather 'a plurality of Islams'. Through a wide-ranging open-ended interview process Barkat discusses this critical discourse about contemporary Islam in the context of this important new theatre work.

N2 - This thematic volume explores the relationship between the arts and learning in various educational contexts and across cultures, but with a focus on higher education and organizational learning. Arts-based interventions are at the heart of this volume, which addresses how they are conceived, designed, carried out, and assessed in different higher educational and cultural contexts. Readers will discover diverse perspectives of the contributing authors from across the world and from a variety of settings: formal education, informal learning for adults and organisational learning. A necessary introductory conceptualisation sets the stage for the discussion of the different cases, with chapters presented according to the art forms the address: performing arts, dance, music, language arts, visual arts, multi-arts and a conclusive chapter on future perspectives for arts-based educational approaches. Arts-based Methods and Organisational Learning: Higher Education Around the World will inspire and inform both scholars and practitioners who are dealing with the arts in education and organisations.
