art camp finale

a short bus ride...became a magical journey
they arrive @ camp... filled with creative energy...Camp Rock Star,
deep in the 'grove', Pleasant Grove, that i...the kids are awesome,
they learn, they invent, they make things, such wonderful talents...
shy ones are coming out of their shells...for 2 weeks 1 little girl never spoke,
then 1 day said, "I painted my star yellow."...i was surprised and elated...
another little kindergartener, began running the art studio,
directing others on set designing...making sure we got it right...
so cool !...they make sketch books, spirit sticks, rain sticks, masks,
t-shirts, and magic...and use math, science, physics...
and, of course, dance, music, and theatre...
...they find a treasure map and began their magical journey
deep into the 'grove'...where all things have living spirits...
...the trees move...and talk...and tell them
"that's not just any ol' rock... that is a piece of a powerful treasure..."
...they locate the 'feathered man' who tells them, "...the rock is a symbol of your family's solid foundation."...he then gives them magical powers, the powers of the universe...fire, earth, water, and wind...and says "...the power of the hidden treasure is inside of yourself."
Bigg huggs for the wonderful, hard-working and giving people that made this magical journey possible...Aztec dance Blanca Reyna, theatre and script writer Jenniffer Clemons, music wizard Bob Baraza, Armon Raphiel (who helped me soo much)...my sweeti Niloo Jalilvand for video and interviews.
