Artful Afternoons is a fun and creative afterschool experience open to students enrolled at Benton Elementary! On Monday and Wednesday afternoons during school sessions, students will be met by two Access Arts staff members or volunteers at dismissal. We give them a healthy snack and then walk together to our Access Arts campus located in the Benton-Stephens neighborhood. The walk from Benton Elementary to our campus is approximately one-half mile away, and along the way students will participate in various mindfulness games and activities.
We are seeking volunteers to serve as escorts for these students. There will be up to 15 students each day, so we would like 2-3 volunteers each day. We ask volunteers to schedule specific dates in advance, and it would be ideal if they could commit to multiple dates of a regular shift (i.e. "every Monday in October.") Volunteers must be able to pass a background check.

Mission Statement
Open to all ages, abilities, and economic circumstance, Access Arts has always been committed to providing creative learning experiences for everyone. That central mission propelled our growth from 28 total registrations in 1971 to an annual average of more than 2,000. Our campus grew, too. From a one basement-corner classroom to a four-building campus, our spacious studios and professional equipment match or exceed the quality of any studio in the region. Keeping true to the organization’s initial vision, this student body still includes people of all ages from all walks of life and every ability level.
Description
Six 6-week sessions of regular classes are offered each year in a variety of fine art and traditional crafts media. Studios are available for advanced students to work independently year-round, and workshops extend class instruction. Outreach programs include lessons and demonstrations at local festivals, schools, senior centers, and organizations. In 2013, the Summer Camp and School's Out Programs were added, providing creative learning for school-age children outside of normal school activities.
