Discover The Arts At Appel Farm:  Art & Music Center

Appel Farm's mission is "to provide people of all ages, cultures and economic backgrounds with a supportive, cooperative environment in which to explore the fine and performing arts." 
 
Appel Farm Arts & Music Center
Back in the early 90's, when my daughters were young girl scouts, their favorite troop leader arranged several field trips to Appel Farm, located in Elmer, NJ.  Let me just say that the programs were phenomenal!
 
They saw entertaining puppet shows, Russian dance theater, folk music and participated in acting workshops.  The entire troop was engaged and enthusiastic each and every time they visited the center.
 
While walking around the Pennsville Library today, I noticed a colorful, attractive brochure that featured butterflies on the cover.  I shouldn't have been surprised to see that it was advertising classes and workshops at the art center. 
 
Ceramics, Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Theatre, Yoga, Zumba and Dance classes, too. 
 
Everything sounds just wonderful!
 
There are classes and workshops for both kids and adults.  Some of the ones that caught my eye are 'Creatures of The Night' (stoneware clay lanterns, owl sculpts, bird baths with celestial stencils and summer night mobiles), 'Taste of Throwing' (create pottery in just one class!), 'Ballroom Dance' (explore the fun of ballroom forms such as the Waltz, Rumba, Samba, Salsa & more) and 'Zumba' (an exhilarating, effective, easy-to-follow Latin-inspired calorie burning dance fitness party).
 
There are so many GREAT things being offered...it's really quite impressive.
 
"Discover The Arts:  Classes and Workshops" are beginning their Fall session on September 12th, so hurry on over to their website to check out their lineup.  Treat yourself to something special.Appel Farm
 
The best part is that you don't have to leave Salem County to expand your world!
