The program states that every person has a unique vision to share, that its creative learning opportunities support students artistically, academically and socially, and that instruction emphasizes self-esteem through meaningful self-expression with social emotional skills valued as strongly as academics, with art and academics melded with respect for each student’s creative spirit and uniqueness. Instructors listed for specific camps include Pepper Vasquez, Kyle Vasquez, Haylee Trowbridge, Misia Buetens, Moss Giommi, and an instructor to be determined for Teen Dungeons and Dragons Camp. Seven Directions also hosts Movie Nights several times a month on Saturday nights where kids watch movies, make art, and interact with resident animals under staff supervision, and it offers financial assistance and scholarships for families experiencing financial hardship or needing help with tuition, as well as gift certificates for classes and camps. One student testimonial states, “I never thought I would actually love snakes!” from Natalie, age 11.
