WEEKLY ART FOUNDATIONS
A step-by-step program for diving into Waldorf art in a meaningful way!
Need a push to get those art supplies out?
(Take a deep breath–art just got easier!)
We hear from homeschooling caregivers all. the. time. who spend BIG on art supplies but then end up avoiding art altogether.
Sometimes it’s because they don’t feel qualified - … I’m not an artist…
Other times it’s because they don’t know how to manage their child’s emotional journey through ‘comparison syndrome.’
Often they’re feeling the weight of teaching every. thing. and would just prefer to outsource some subjects.
Starting to sound familiar?
Imagine instead…
Consistently creating art with your child without either of you getting stuck in comparison mode.
Dramatically reducing your planning time.
Your home becoming an art gallery filled with your children’s creations.
“The growth mindset message you give throughout the lessons have been so helpful to us. That, and the practice of ‘art show’ are already making a difference in the words my kids use around their art. Thank you!”

FAQ’s:
-
Absolutely! We have many non-Waldorf & Waldorf-ish families using our program. Weekly Art is more about a way of teaching (and learning) art than it is about following a specific educational pedagogy. Robyn was a public school teacher before she was a Waldorf teacher .... we incorporate the best practices from everything we've encountered in our careers.
-
No, the lessons repeat from year to year. We enroll a new group of families each year, and work together through the lessons.
If you have taken a previous version of Foundations, we recommend you take a look at our next Weekly Art course, Diving Deeper.

-
Weekly Art is not a monthly subscription program. The lessons build on each other from start to finish of the course. *Think of it like signing up for a full school year of Science, or Math, or Dance class.

If your family is very new to the Waldorf-inspired arts, you may benefit from our short course Waldorf Art for Beginners. Weekly Art Foundations and Waldorf Art for Beginners are complimentary courses, and can be taken at the same time.
Generally, we recommend Weekly Art - Foundations for ages 7+. Please be sure to try our free sample lesson before you make your decision to enroll.

Yes, all videos are high quality, so you will need a fairly high-speed Internet connection to view them. The videos are a vital part of the content of this course, so please do consider this when purchasing. We are not able to provide alternative viewing options for people on dial-up or with limited connections (and we cannot give refunds if you are having issues viewing the videos due to your internet connection). Therefore, please bear this in mind when registering. If you have regular broadband, you should be fine. These lessons are NOT downloadable.
If you are easily able to use any of our sample lessons with your current wi-fi/internet setup, then you're good to go!

This program includes x4 lessons per month. We encourage you to use any 5th weeks that occur as breathing space in the program. Consider repeating a lesson, or adapting a favorite to something specific you've been studying. You may also choose to simply let art "rest" that week and take a break.
