TESTIMONIALS
“I just wanted to share how much we enjoy and appreciate the Dahl art classes. My son, Ben, has been a regular participant for several years and continues to have a blast learning new art techniques with great teachers and other kids his age. Our community is lucky to have such a well-organized, beneficial, meaningful program for youth who otherwise may not be exposed to the arts and culture in such a positive, influential manner. As a parent, it’s enjoyable to see his creativity blossom. And, I’m so thankful for the teachers who continue to foster and grow this creativity both in and out of the classroom. His self-esteem gets a huge boost every time he hears, “Hey, Ben! Great to have you back! We’re going to have so much fun!” Ben feels at home in these classes and feels valued for who his is. I can’t thank you enough for making this program available and successful! I tell everyone I know about the classes in hopes of finding more recruits!” - Carly |
