HIART!–New York’s premiere arts program–presents its fourteenth summer of CULTURE BUGS! The city’s most brilliant and exhilarating mini-camp in the contemporary arts.

Like HiArt!, Culture Bugs! is fully committed to a creative, child-centered methodology that encourages children to express themselves freely, to develop a sense of ease, familiarity and mastery in the "high" arts, and have a ton of fun all at the same time.

Culture Bugs! integrates visits to the city’s most important museums and galleries with focused in-studio sessions of music, dance and hands-on art. Children dig into a broad range of artists’ materials as they sing, dance, improvise, read poetry, listen to late 20th and 21st century music and stretch their active minds and bodies into new and exciting configurations. Each child works according to his or her abilities, and appropriate faculty is available to work with both older and younger participants. www.hiartkids.com for more information!
