The Katonah Art Center Launches Renaissance Enrichment Program

Online, April 23, 2013 (Newswire.com) - The Katonah Art Center is announcing its new Renaissance Enrichment Program for Kindergarteners and Preschoolers. This program will give children both an extensive introduction to all different types of art and immerse them in a bilingual environment, where they will learn Spanish.

The KAC is holding a Renaissance Enrichment Program and Summer Camp Open House on May 3rd and 4th, 12pm-3pm. The new enrichment rooms will be open and the teachers will be present to meet future students and parents and to provide more information about the program. KAC summer camps will also be featured at this Open House.

Every day, the Renaissance program will have a mix of story-time, art, dance/movement, and music. Spanish will be incorporated into all of these activities. The classes will be led Patti Hupp, the lead singer in the Feeling Groovy Band and founder of Miss Patti's ArtSmart and ArtSmart TV.

"Study after study shows the importance of art and music in early education and the benefits of learning a second language as a child," says Loren Anderson, founder and director of the Katonah Art Center. "We think that putting these things together will create a great learning environment for your child, while still being a lot of fun."

The program will follow the Katonah-Lewisboro school schedule, including school closings and weather delays. The Renaissance Enrichment Program will begin Sept 9th and end June 26th. Transportation options are available from local schools.

The Katonah Art Center is located at 131 Bedford Road, Katonah, New York. For more information about the Renaissance Enrichment Program or Katonah Art Center's dance or art classes, call 914 232-4843 or visit the KAC website atwww.katonahartcenter.com.
