Collaborative Project

Three local non-profit arts organizations have teamed together for the elementary program.  The Desert Caballeros Western Museum is providing “Young Rembrandts”, the innovative visual arts program that teaches basic drawing skills.  The Museum has received funding for this program from Wickenburg’s Own Have Fun Foundation.  Wickenburg Children’s Cultural Organization is providing beginner level “Violin Lessons” that include learning to play as well as tuning the instrument.  The WCO is also providing the violins for this class.  The Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts is adding to the class mix with “Comedy/Improv” and “Clowning Around”.  In addition, a class entitled “Acting Out” will give young actors and actresses a chance to work on theatrical scenes.

There is a nominal charge for participation in Art. Works. Scholarships are available for those who qualify. To receive a tax credit for the $25 registration fee please make check payable to “Wickenburg Unified School District” and submit the Art. Works. registration form with a tax credit form to the Hassayampa Elementary or Vulture Peak Middle School front office.  If you choose not to receive a tax credit for this program you may make your check payable to the “Webb Center” and turn in the registration form to the Webb Center Box Office.  Contact the Webb Center Box Office @ 928-684-6624 for more information.
