KidsArt
With many of the art programs being reduced or eliminated in our schools, ArtCenter
Manatee fills the gap and adds enrichment to the lives of our students. After school and
summer programs challenge children ages 4-15 to think creatively while meeting new
friends and having fun. Scholarships for economically disadvantaged children are awarded
when funding is available.
After School
The after school program is designed for children ages 6-10. In each 5 week session, children
will explore a medium such as drawing, painting or pottery.
Summer Camps
Summer is always fun and lively at ArtCenter Manatee. Our Sprouting Artists, ages 4 and 5,
have an opportunity to express their creativity with age appropriate activities. In Talented
Tuesdays, children ages 6-10 explore a variety of mediums in this once a week camp. If
they want more, this age group can attend 1 week camps from 9-3 Monday through Friday.
Older children, ages 11-15, are challenged in weekly morning camps where they can learn
pottery, jewelry design, drawing, painting and more.
Scholarships in Memory of Billie Domenech
Grand Dame among Local Artists
The Creative Arts Association of Lakewood Ranch (CAA) donation for scholarships for Emerging Artists at ArtCenter Manatee was
given in memory of Billie Domenech. Billie was a charter member of Creative Arts Association who fell victim last year to cancer.
An incredible artist, a commanding presence in a room, Billie was a Grand Dame among local artists.
ArtCenter Manatee is very fortunate to be the recipient of this award which will provide seven scholarships for eleven to
fifteen year old summer camp students. Any individuals or groups interested in providing scholarships for children or supplies
please contact Mary Roff at 746-2862.
We thank the following sponsors for KidsArt scholarships:
Service Club of Manatee County
Women’s Leadership Initiative
Creative Arts Association of Lakewood Ranch
Transportation Control Systems, Inc.
