The Atelier

The Charles Wright Academy Atelier is a studio space for our youngest learners where children research, invent and develop empathy. In the Atelier, children can get messy, try new things, make mistakes, and experiment. In partnership with the classroom teachers, the atelierista honors children’s wonders and knowledge. The Atelier is a working studio where materials are abundant and available, and there is ample space to create with many different mediums. In these conditions, community is born, a story is written, and magic is made.

 

This innovation space is the first of its kind in the South Sound.
