About the Center
Course Philosophy
In a child's growth, the "ability to feel" is the door to a beautiful world. Sound Colors" supports children to listen to their hearts, feel beauty, and express themselves freely through an approach that combines music and painting. Through the interplay of colors and melodies, we nurture delicate sensitivity, emotional expression, and independent thinking.
Course Features
Music Guidance × Painting Expression
While listening to music, freely feel the rhythm, emotion, and scenery, pick up a brush, and draw your own heart. From "intangible with sound" to "silent with form" - express yourself through art. A wide variety of art materials to experience A wide variety of painting materials are used, including watercolor, oil pastel, and soft pastel. Under the guidance of a specialized instructor, students will have a full sensory experience using sight, touch, and hearing.
Feel the changing of the seasons × Feel the present
The content is linked to the seasons. The budding of spring, the brightness of summer, the harvest of fall, and the quietness of winter - the program encourages the growth of the mind while experiencing the changes of nature.
