Experimental Arts Summer Camp (2018)

I started and directed my own arts summer camp in my community. Each session was 3 hours long each and each week had an art material theme. Experimental Visual Arts Camp was conducted in small groups indoors. For Ages ranging 7-15 years old. I had only 3 students at this time but it grew to 25 students each summer partnering with Prosperity Social Community Development Group.

 Arts Summer Camp (2024)

I have partnered with Prosperity Social and Community Development Group Inc. with their afterschool program called Shinebright. These programs were held at Arch Creek Elementary School and the North Miami Library, where they serve elementary and middle school students with homework, projects, and the skills they need for success.

I teach art with the scholars to improve motor skills and problem solving skills. Each session is 1 hour long each week with different art projects to work on.
