If your New Year’s Resolution is about getting in shape, we have the perfect plan for you!
Sponsor one of the 14 students in our CREATIVE RUNNING class taught by AAC Professors (and avid runners) Paige Williams and Matt Hart.
In this team-taught/team-coached literature, art and running course will be held on Friday mornings this spring from 9 – 11:50 a.m.
Students will explore not only the highs, the glories and the agonies of running, but the ways they intersect with the creative process in terms of imaginative flight, commitment, endurance and performance. In addition to reading, writing art-making, discussion, and field trips, the course will include miles and miles of running!
Students will train as a class to run the Flying Pig Marathon’s 10K race (6.2 miles). Good running shoes and warm winter running clothes will be necessary for all students. (It’ll be cold in January and February, and the class will be out in it).
As a sponsor, you will
- Buy a pair of running shoes for your student (Estimate $85-$150)
- Attend at least one class or running session. (Optional)
- Support and cheer your student across the finish line at the Flying Pig Marathon 10k!
- Finally, it would be totally wonderful if you also entered and ran the race with the class.
If you want to sponsor one of our creative running artists, please contact Joan Kaup ASAP! 513-562-8745 jkaup@artacademy.edu
