The Family Ties Homeschool Program provides an enriching hands-on arts experience for students ages 5-18. Fun-filled arts education programs are specifically designed for homeschooled students. Caring, experienced teachers guide students through visual art, theatre, music and dance classes. Students share what they have learned with family and friends when they gather for a celebration of the arts near the close of each session.

This year students will travel the world with the theme "Arts Around the World." Though this program is designed to be a one-year curriculum, it is not necessary that students attend both the Fall 2011 and Spring 2012 sessions. New students are ALWAYS welcome! The curriculum of this program is aligned with the Ohio Department of Education's Academic Content Standards in Fine Arts.

Daily Schedule: Students rotate through four 55-minute classes in visual art, theatre, music and dance. All students meet for lunch in the Main Gallery from 12:30 - 1:00 pm. (Students should bring their own bag lunch.)
