The inaugural launch of the program has helped a core group of 30 students inspire creativity and expand their knowledge and appreciation of the arts through hands-on and experience-based opportunities. Home-school students from Creighton are among the regular participants, and organizers have heard from several families of fourth-graders excited about getting involved next year.
“Because of the passport program, my friends and I have gotten to do a lot of really cool projects like votive making and learning about op art. I also got to go to Soup ’R Art and talk to some artists and learn about their artwork.” -Piper Okamoto, Fifth-grader at Norfolk Middle School.
