Keep children active outdoors this summer where learning is fun at Zone of Light Studio’s Summer Programs.
Last year’s programs received rave reviews from parents who love finding creative summer activities for their children – and Zone of Light Studio provides just that! Art, acting, movement, music and outdoor games are all geared for children ages 5 – 15, who are divided into separate age groups for all activities.
This upbeat, imaginative art center, located in a large renovated warehouse space in the Floataway complex near Emory, NE Atlanta, encourages everyone to express their inner creativity. Instructors are experienced, enthusiastic, and love art and creativity as much as they love teaching kids. Kids enjoy hands-on art projects and exploring the great outdoors at the newly restored Zonolite Park’s wooded trails, meadows, pond and creek. Zone of Light studio hires certified teachers, certified art teachers, and art students to run the art portion of the camp. Assistants have in the past included college students and high school students with experience working with children in formal settings.
Owner Amy Wilson is an arts enthusiast and a parent of three school-age children. A former DeKalb County teacher with curriculum and instruction specialty, her dream is to fill the gaps in art education programs. Ms. Wilson says, “We want to give children ways to tap into their own creativity and make learning hands-on and fun. We place joy first in the process!” The studio’s innovative teaching approach garners high praise from parents who love seeing their children focus on creativity and the arts in a comfortable, interactive environment.
One parent says, “Zone of Light Studio offers high-quality, affordable art instruction. My three daughters and I have loved going to Friday art nights, birthday parties, school break and summer programs at the Zone. It is so refreshing to see kids just being kids − happily enjoying the creative activities and running around outside.”
