In a bustling city like Baltimore, there are so many opportunities. There are incredible chances to get pulled into the power and allure of art, especially for young students. And guess what? Creative City’s K-5 public charter school has the secret sauce to make these moments drip with inspiration. We are a play and place-based community school that uses art to power critical thinking and imagination. Here's how: Triggering Resourcefulness through Art Imagine this: you're a curious 3rd grader looking at a blank canvas, and the world of possibilities suddenly opens up before you. You have a few colors, brushes, pens and other supplies, and now you must CREATE based on what you feel. This is how our students use imagination and available resources to make their mark on life. It's how they use it to problem solve, dream up new possibilities and become architects of innovation. Whether it’s a dynamic painting, a funky sculpture, or a playful dance move on stage (because stages are canvases, too), Creative City students know it’s not just about colors and shapes; it's a fun brain workout.

Just like curious detectives, our students analyze the details of their creations. From the strokes of a painting to the emotions of the piece--they dissect the stories hidden in a dance routine. This is how our hands-on curriculum encourages students to ask questions. Why did the artist choose that color? Does this piece make you feel anything? What message is it trying to get across? By questioning, students practice critical thinking skills. Making Connections If you’ve ever noticed how art can trigger memories and associations, then you know how creative ideas are like puzzle pieces fitting together. At Creative City, we encourage our students to play the “connect the dots” game with art. They learn to spot connections between creative forms, like linking dots on a page. This nurtures flexible thinking and pattern recognition.  Featured art in Creative City classroom.
