The summer camp ART-SUMMER in Novo-Molokovo will accept both the pre-school age-group (children from 2 to 6 years old), and teenagers (from 7 to 15 years old). The summer in the camp is divided into four sessions, each of which will last 2 weeks and will be focused on environment, journalism, design and theatre respectively.

The camp’s program is based on edutainment principle that implies combination of advanced educational and entertainment practices. During each session the kids jointly with supervisors and experts study theory in a fun way, solve case studies. Each session will end with a mini-farewell party, at which the children will present their creative projects to their parents and broad public.  In addition to core subjects, the plan includes modern dancing lessons, board games, quests and other entertainment that will take place at the city park Novo-Molokovo near the Culture Center.

The supervisors of summer art programs are people who know how to listen and hear, how to evoke a child’s interest and engage him or her in joint creative processes, forge a relationship of trust between the members of a group. Participation in the summer art program for small kids implies presence of a parent, while teenagers will take part in games, quests and interactive master classes for a whole day supervised by attendants, who, by acting as their true friends and senior peers, will provide general guidance and assistance. The classes will take place from Monday to Friday, from 11.00 to 13.00 for the youngest residents of Novo-Molokovo and from 15.00 to 19.00 for older kids.

During the session the children will become nature-lovers, they will participate in entertaining master classes on natural science, gardening and creative thinking, they will make sculptures from waste materials (batteries, cardboard, plastic bottles), make improvised design objects from materials at hand, paint using natural paints.  Under the guidance of Gayane Mamyan, the session supervisor, who teaches development classes in high school, a teacher of the “Green School” at the Gorky Park, children’s’ theatre director and oratory teacher, the children will make a journey around the globe to learn about the cultures of different countries and peoples.
