Little Locheart Arts currently serves families who have childcare needs during school days off, and summer break.  During the 2016/2017 seasons, we are working to increase program reach to include after school programs, weekend drop-in studio time, kindergarten enrichment, and we will be launching a teen program this summer/fall.  We focus on materials exploration and believe we have the responsibility to utilize reclaimed materials whenever possible.  We offer youth the opportunity to explore their own creative intuition, through art and science projects and balance these explorations with appropriate outdoor time.  We often follow a seasonal curriculum and use a contemplative approach to our teaching methods.  We engage in cultural field trips around the Boulder area to foster curiosity about our environment, to stimulate interest in the rich arts and cultural offerings that our community provides, and to gain knowledge and experiences, which influence the creative process.

Locheart Arts also works in a variety of ways to engage the community through art, and is committed to creating a robust and thriving arts scene in Boulder County.  We work closely with the Office of Arts and Culture, and other local arts organizations and provide opportunities for interns to learn about a variety of issues concerning the arts.

This is a non-paid internship position but will qualify for service learning hour needs
