Period A: DIY Arts and Crafts Do you love combining your art and creativity with crafting and maker-skills? There is art and beauty all around us and so much to explore and create! We will be learning to appreciate “upcycling”--which is “taking something no longer in use and giving it a second life or purpose.” We’ll learn how to work with upcycled paper, fabric, painting and more to make keychains, tie dye projects, bottles painting, stone painting and other environmentally-friendly pieces of art. Instructor Vanessa Restrepo has a passion for art, design and fashion. She has been making jewelry and other clay creations for years, and is an artist with her own company in the Bay Area. She loves working with youth to help expand horizons and share respect for our multicultural community. Period B: Basketball Skillz Build your fundamental basketball skills in lay-ups, three point shooting, dribbling, and more while having fun with friends and making new ones. We'll work on basic basketball skills, while also playing different games and building teamwork skills. Instructor Trevor Slater is a math teacher and has a long career in education, including being an outdoor educator, coaching basketball, teaching archery and woodshop and much more.
