SASY 1990 Knows
No Boundaries
In her third year as Director of
the Upstairs sponsored Summer
Arts Series for Youth (SASY),
Linda McCune has honed her
management skills to create the
most successful, varied and
demanded arts experience ever
Enrollment for SASY 1990 has
doubled from the previous year,
McCune said, and this year
classes were offered for eager
adults who have always wanted
to take those great classes their
children have experienced. In
addition, many more classes
were offered for the three and
four-year-old preschoolers and
the high school response
increased, she said.
Over 30 teachers participated
in SASY 1990 representing a wide
range of fields and experience,
McCune said. All preschool
teachers either were or had been
preschool teachers in the past,
resulting in a strong program
that was filled in the first two
weeks.
“What you do with three and
four-year-olds is to expose them
to art mediums. You don’t
expect them to learn techniques
and styles," said second-year
SASY teacher Jo Brown. “And I
used art to teach skills," the
mother of one infant and two
preschoolers added.
Brown offered exposure to
clay, paper, cloth, food and
nature materials. Her classes
included making trial mix and
decorating cookies, body
awareness with capes the
