The Crystal Lake Art Center, in cooperation with the Michigan Dance Collective, present an extensive dance and visual arts residency in Benzie County schools. The project culminates with a performance at Benzie Central Auditorium.
The project serves every third grader in the county, including classes at Betsie Valley, Crystal Lake, Lake Ann, Platte River, and Frankfort elementary schools. The project takes the students’ curriculum and explores the subjects through dance movement and visual arts projects. Subjects for the dances are chosen by the classroom teachers and have included the life cycle of a dragonfly; the earth, moon, and sun; fractions; and other subjects. Dancers work with students to create their dances and artists help the students make props and backdrops. The project provides over 88 hours of instruction for over 200 students in eleven classrooms. It is made possible by support from the Larry and Susan Burks Family
Foundation, Jewell Arts Fund and Panther Parents. Opportunities for sponsorship through program advertising are available. For more information, call the Crystal Lake Art Center at 231-352-4151 or e-mail clartcenter@sbcglobal.net. rate sheet
