Friedel Art Program

The art program focuses on building many qualities in our students:

  • a sense of adaptability (going with the flow),
  •  self esteem through self expression,
  • problem solving skills,
  • Jewish identity,
  • creative thinking/expression, an openness to exploration and experimentation
  • getting away from perfection,
  • igniting a love of ideas and the process of creating both with our hands and minds

We are dedicated to having a creative and fun art program that helps our students express themselves in new ways and nurtures a positive view of our Jewish and general community.
