The Center has always placed great importance on programs for the younger members of the community - classes and activities in the visual and performing arts. Young creative spirits need to be nurtured in the notion that creativity is not a secondary part of a well rounded life but an essential element at its very core.

Join us for our Flowers of Spring Artshop. From making cards with pressed wildflowers to creating suncatchers and flower crowns, students will learn how to press and draw flowers and make timeless art from the plants around us. Students will also plant seeds and flowers in our children's garden.
The Artshop consists of three sessions in the Folk Pottery Studio on Saturdays during April and May.
Join us for After School Art II as we create multi-media projects, including drawing, painting, collage and sculpture. An emphasis on individual creativity will make these sessions fun while learning basic art techniques. Snack is provided.
Join us for Kids Yoga! Strength, flexibility, and coordination are focused on with a greater understanding of body awareness. Yoga sequences, breathing, balance poses, and relaxation are taught to build a child's confidence in their abilities while practicing in a non-competitive environment.
This will be a 6-week session on Thursdays in April and May from 3:30 - 5 pm in the Community Hall and Outdoor Stage.
The Sautee Stars, our children's theatre after-school class, will present the musical, Disney's The Little Mermaid JR, this spring. Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories, The Little Mermaid JR is an enchanting look at the sacrifices we all make for love and acceptance.
In a magical underwater kingdom, the beautiful young mermaid, Ariel, longs to leave her ocean home - and her fins - behind and live in the world above. But first, she will have to defy her father, King Triton, make a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, and convince the handsome Prince Eric that she is the girl whose enchanting voice he has been seeking.
Admission to this class is by Audition only. Contact Youth Program Director Abigail Thomas athomas@snca.org for information.
Performance dates are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, April 20, 21,
and 22 at 7:00pm and Sunday, April 23 at 2:00 p.m. in the Center Theater.
Join Ben Dockins from The Willows Pottery for this fun clay workshop. Each student will be given a beautiful, pre-made wheel-thrown mug form. Ben will teach them how to use basic hand-building techniques to sculpt, form and attach fun and silly facial features.
Children are encouraged to bring pictures that would assist with inspiration. Mugs will be fired, glazed and available for pick-up within 3 weeks.
Join us for Valley Homeschool Days at the Sautee Nacoochee Cultural Center! Drop your children off for a seasonal art project from 10am to noon in the Historic Gym.
Our 2-week Summer Theatre Arts Camp will feature a performance of Peace Child, The Musical
Around the world, there have been over 10,000 performances of Peace Child, The Musical, with each one set fifty years in the future in a peaceful and sustainable world.
The overview is that the story is told in a flashback to the present and tells what the children of today do with their lives to bring about that future world that we all want.
Each performance is different as every cast is invited to imagine that they are the young people in the story. They are encouraged to develop their own characters, write new songs, lines and sometimes whole scenes to accommodate their ideas.
Peace Child's goal is to empower these young adults to imagine how they will change the world for the better in their lifetimes.
This unique workshop will help your child connect with their body, inspire confidence and explore personal creativity, all through the power of dance. It will consist of 8 sessions in the Historic Gymnasium.
Join us for Summer Artshop as we create multi-media projects, including drawing, painting, collage and sculpture. An emphasis on individual creativity will make these sessions fun while learning basic art techniques. Snack is provided.
