SUMMARY:Private & Semi-Private Music Lessons for Kids
DESCRIPTION:Private/Semi-Private lessons are offered to kids 12 yrs and under on recorder\, guitar and/or keyboard.  Lessons will be scheduled on Mondays or Tuesdays (after other scheduled music courses taught by Steve\, generally after 5pm).  \nThese lessons will help young beginners build a strong foundation for more advanced studies on any of these instruments. \nCareful listening and musicianship skills are emphasized. Fourth and fifth-grade recorder students will gain a solid foundation that will allow for rapid progress upon selecting band instruments in sixth grade. \nLessons are reasonably-priced and conveniently located in the center of Harvard. The ability to group kids into semi-private lessons offers the opportunity for middle-low income families to participate in quality music education.  \nSteve Peisch has taught music at several schools\, including the New England Conservatory\, Deerfield Academy\, Lawrence Academy\, The Indian Hill Music School (now called the Groton Hill Music Center) the Bromfield School\, and Hildreth Elementary School. \nMost recently\, he has focused on providing excellent and enjoyable music classes for the youngest elementary school age children\, having learned from first-hand experience that providing a strong foundation at this level will strengthen the music programs that follow in both middle and high schools. \nPeisch is committed to developing curiosity and creativity in young people\, to sequencing instruction carefully and in conversation with other music teachers\, to broadcasting high expectations in music and other arts classes\, and to encouraging music students to make connections with other subject areas. \nPeisch’s music is available on his website\, http://hundredsrecords.com/index.html\, and his recommendations for arts educators can be found on his company’s website\, http://www.newdirectionsinartseducation.com/ \nContact Peisch at stevepeisch2@gmail.com with questions\, pricing information and to register.

SUMMARY:2024 Summer Plein Air Artists Group
DESCRIPTION:This program has reached its maximum capacity. We hope you will consider another program at Fivesparks in the future! \n\nFacilitators: Ann Gillespie (agillespieart@gmail.com) and Judy Warner (awarner@charter.net). \nEnjoy the rewarding experience of creating art out-of-doors in Harvard! This group will meet weekly for six weeks to paint together in local private and public areas\, including some beautiful sites not usually accessible to the public. While plein air is wonderful\, it can be daunting and difficult to get out consistently on a solo basis. The commitment to painting with a group can be extremely helpful in “making it happen” and is also fun and rewarding. \nAll levels are encouraged to participate\, from beginner to professional\, and artists are welcome to create in the medium of their choice. While this program’s volunteer facilitators are generously donating their time to plan\, organize\, and manage the series\, they won’t be providing actual instruction; all participants are encouraged to share ideas\, tips and fellowship. \nDonation: $100 for the six sessions.  All proceeds to benefit Fivesparks. \nSpace is limited. \nDates:  Thursdays\, June 6\, 13\, 20\, & 27; July 11 & 18 (rain dates Friday of same week\, or resheduled as warranted; no session week of July 4th)\nTime:   2:30-5:30pm \nRegistrants will receive tips for plein air and the schedule with locations\, in advance of the sessions. \n
