Program Overview
Taught weekly, School Art is CAF's intermediary level teaching level for "art education" and "art appreciation" lessons for students, ages 6 - 17. Participation involves either attending consecutive (class) lessons or independent (appreciation) lessons that follow the tenets of Disciplined-Based Art Education* [learning in and through art] and aspects of the USA, National Visual Art Standards** [instructional, assessable, and aspirational pathways.]
School Art students are categorized by age within one of four CAF Basic Skill Levels : Novice (ages 6-8); Beginner (ages 9-11); Apprentice (ages 12-14); and, Scholar (ages 15-17). Further, students elect to meet the standards of their assigned or a higher skill level in creating their art work in their respective two-hour, multi-age classroom. School Art art-making experiences include relating, evaluating, analyzing, and producing art,* while connecting, responding, creating and presenting** final works.
School Art lessons empower attending students to express their artistic decisions and engage their creative energies in defining their own creative styles, using various art media and techniques to - understand; create; enjoy!

Program Overview : Establishing a personal understanding of art-making and art understanding by creating works that "speak" the individually and collective visual expressions of the elements and principles of art. Mixing and matching the "vocabulary" and "creations" that "speak" the "language of art," students "produce" their work and achieve its "artistic challenge," to "emphasize" each "line" in its "space" to "balance" the "unity" in a "monochromatic" "landscapes!" . . .

Program Overview : In 2024, CAF was asked to conduct an art lesson to the students of Ms. Lauder's 7th Grade class at the Grafenwoehr Grund- and Middle-School. This surprising honor rekindled memories of CAF's pre-COVID support to the school's "Praktikum" program. Now, creating art within the school's classrooms was a humbling an gracious honor accepted with great enthusiasm and gratitude. For 2025, CAF will support two grades at the middle school!

Language Is Art == Taught every week according to the schedule. ; Total Monthly Hours = 4 hours ; Additionally Class Fee = None ; Art-making supplies = included.
Program Overview : Art is a universal language that connects people across cultures and borders. In our art association, we offer you a unique opportunity to learn German and develop your creativity at the same time. Art language is not only a way to develop your language skills, but also a creative approach to a new world. Because art and language go hand in hand: Art language allows you to speak and write about visual forms of expression and to understand how art and culture manifest themselves in another language. At ACAF you can not only learn the German language, but also actively use it in a creative context. You will not only learn grammar and vocabulary, but also the way of expression in the art scene, if you enjoy that. This makes learning exciting and lively! Sign up now and discover how much fun it is to learn German while developing your artistic skills? Classes available for 2 students minimum and 6 students maximum.

Harry Potter Art Club == Taught every week according to the schedule ; Total Monthly Hours = 8 hours ; Additionally Class Fee = + €12,50, in each additional hour; weekly classes provide an additional x4-hours each month beyond the x4 membership hours ;
Art-making supplies = included, which also includes the issuing of a student art-journaling book for student's visual expressions in journeying through Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling.
Program Overview : The CAF's Harry Potter Art Club is designed to infuse each club member into the storyline of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,"
written by J.K Rowling, who said:
"We do not need magic to transform the world.
We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already."
Each 2-hour art lesson allows students to visualize their "Muggle" roles, actions, and activities within this first Harry Potter movie. Their CAF-provided Harry Potter Journal comprises their 2D and bas-relief visualizations, while their 3D assemblages & sculptures allow for high-relief, stand alone, and sculpture-in-the-round pieces. Our art-making is continuous and imaginative (magical) so that each student can fully visualize their movie involvement until reaching their conclusion in their movie retelling through their art.
