FBC of Cornelia to Host 2nd Annual MOSAIC Arts Camp
FBC has provided this creative opportunity for children who wish to explore and develop their creative interests. The camp began with an idea in the mind of the church pastor but quickly spread into the hearts of the entire church congregation. Wide-spread support assures every child involved of an enriching experience. The name MOSAIC was chosen to summarize this experience: “Mentoring Our Students Artistically In Christ.”
The planning of this summer’s event began early this year to ensure the best possible opportunities for those participating. A wide range of artistic classes will be offered: story-telling, drama, dance, vocal, music, guitar and recorder, pottery, photography and art. The camp director, Donna Trotter, has a professional background in dance instruction. All staff members have wide-ranging education in their particular classes. Just as important, each has a passion to offer instruction to our communities’ children. Adult staff will be assisted by talented student volunteers.
Class enrollment will be kept to manageable numbers so that every child will receive individual attention and guidance. Students will be given the opportunity to enroll in their favorite classes to the limits of the camp’s ability. All students are encouraged to explore a class that will be new to them as well.
Due to the generous support from the church congregation the camp will be able to send home all works at the end of the week as well as supplies for further exploration. Each day will conclude with a working experience presented by an accomplished local artist. The theme of this years’ camp is “Whatever you do, do it for the glory of God!” Each student will be shown that all creative gifts can and should be used to express gratitude to God and to inspire others to do the same.
To register your child or for more information, contact Donna Trotter at 706-778-2893 or pick up a registration form in the FBC office. Classes are chosen on the registration form and the cost is $25. Scholarships will be available on a needs basis.

First Baptist Church Summer Arts Camp
It is our belief that all God’s children are a unique creation, divinely created in His image. Looking at the world through the eyes of a child, we see God created our universe as a divine artistic mosaic. Through the various art mediums offered, the camp will nurture the creative ability of each child.
MOSAIC Arts Camp at FBC Cornelia will provide children with the opportunity to develop character, learn valuable life skills, make new friends, discover new interests, and have fun! The accomplished artistic staff, along with youth assistants, is dedicated to creating a memorable experience.
Various arts instruction will be offered. In the past, MOSAIC curriculum included such disciplines as: dance, creative writing, storytelling, drawing, pottery, photography, theatre, vocal ensemble, and guitar. Workshops are co-ed, with approximately 15 children per class. Three age divisions facilitate the needs of each child, allowing the children to work and play with their peers in a challenging, relaxed, and safe setting. Children will select three of their favorite arts disciplines for the week long session. Tuition is $25 and scholarships are available for those who may need them.
