How does a class schedule move from daydream to viable idea to curriculum to open for registration? Coffee! Well that's only part of it. Our offerings are influenced by the seasons, the trends and the classics, the things we observe as natural love-connections in our students... It starts with the art. Then we find connections to the science, language arts, tech, engineering, math, humanities (etc, etc) concepts and pop those sometimes between the lines and other times in a more obvious way. Fall class registration opens August 30, 2016. #growartists #wishcraftworkshop

This is totally how I feel this afternoon as I write about growing artists and thinkers this summer and every day, plan activities for the Littles Make + Play Camp at @mommycon Chicago, and some other stuff I can't share just yet. Thank you @rebookery for capturing it perfectly. Love love love love love! #lovemyjob #walkingonsunshinevenwhenitsgrey #whistlewhileyouhustle #growartists #wishcraftworkshop (at Wishcraft Workshop)
