Art Tent Life
Our Philosophy
In our studio, we practice the 8 Habits of Mind, from " Studio Thinking" by: Lois Hetland, Ed. D.
Improve our art skills through practice. Learn to organize and care for our art materials, tools, and art making space.
Designated spaces such as TAB, Books, and Boardgames are also available for our students to enjoy during their downtime. (*TAB or "Teaching for Artistic Behavior" environments enable students to choose from a selection of structured work spaces, with clearly defined expectations for self-directed learning)
What does Art Tent Life means?
​ART TENT : The first mention of art in the Bible is in Exodus 31. God is instructing Moses to create a Tent for the ark of the covenant, and God mentions several artisans whom He has chosen to create “artistic designs” to beautify the tent. God says, “In the hearts of all who are skillful I have put skill.” We know that God is the source of all creation and all artistic talents. He is the Greatest artist whose hands and voices create beauty. Tent is also represented as the dwelling place of God's presence. We believed when we create beautiful things, and our skill in doing so is from Him and it is to glorify and connect to our Abba and His love.
LIFE : The Greek word translated as life in John 1:4 is zoe (ζωή) : “In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” 'Zoe' refers to the eternal life of God, the divine life uniquely possessed by God.
