Full Circle: A student-centered approach to arts education in Chattanooga
Monday morning, the artists worked on discovering their body and mind connections through a "brain dance".Then, they got into resting positions on a large piece of paper. Each of their bodies were traced.The artists then began to draw, write and create their own masterpiece - a process many of them will take back to their classrooms to teach students this school year.Ann Law, Artistic Director at Barking Legs Theater, says, "To me the whole point is embracing the entire individual and not putting them in traditional education, which sometimes prevents that from happening."The artists at this boot camp are part of an organization called "Full Circle Teaching Artists Program."
