About
Youth Programs at Sitka Center for Art and Ecology connect young people with arts and nature through the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology. The program is part of a broader organization that offers workshops from professional instructors in painting, drawing, music, nature, woodworking, sculpture, fiber arts, jewelry, metalwork, photography, printmaking, writing and more. Youth Programs are connected to K-8 Create, an arts education program that brings free arts and STEAM education into rural Title 1 schools where arts access is limited.
• Schedule: K-8 Create offers arts and STEAM education through rural Title 1 schools where arts access is limited.
The Sitka Center for Art and Ecology states that it supports arts and nature access for all and believes that the intersection of art and science is vital for creating balance in the relationship with the natural world. Through K-8 Create, the organization serves school children across the north-central Oregon Coast with free arts and STEAM education in schools where arts access is limited. One person described Sitka as one of the very best resources on the Oregon coast for anyone who has wondered what to do with a spark of creativity. Another person shared that their work is made richer by a deep connection with the trees, water, estuary and people at Sitka, and another described a favorite moment of seeing a bull elk at sunset on the solstice and feeling grateful to be at this place after a year of work, joy and struggle.
