Jillian, the dedicated community outreach manager at the Delaplaine Arts Center, is spearheading a vibrant series of workshops for the Exito summer program students at Centro de Hispano. The workshops are designed to engage young minds in a variety of artistic disciplines, ranging from photography to watercolor painting and fabric collages. Through these interactive sessions, Jillian aims to foster creativity and a love for the arts among the youth, offering them hands-on experiences that enhance their artistic skills and appreciation.
These workshops are not only about learning techniques but also about keeping the arts alive within the community. Each session allows students to explore different mediums and express themselves in a supportive environment. The variety of projects ensures that every participant finds something that resonates with their interests and talents. As the summer progresses, Jillian continues to inspire these young artists, reinforcing the importance of the arts in personal and community development.
