Ladera Creative Arts Program for Children
2022-12-11 10:00 - 11:00, 2022-12-04 10:00 - 11:00, 2022-11-27 10:00 - 11:00, 2022-11-20 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Ladera Church, 3300 Alpine Road, Portola Valley, CA, 94028, United States
The Ladera Creative Arts Program utilizes the creative arts to provide elementary through high-school aged children with the spiritual and psychological tools to help them live a whole, healthy life. Zine-making and book arts are the primary creative modalities used for this program. Zines (pronounced “zeens”) are self-published booklets, often made by cutting and gluing text and images together (similar to making a collage). Zines have a particular appeal in that they engage children in a creative process that utilizes the art of storytelling to deepen the child’s sense of self and to connect with others. Making zines requires no previous experience or skill level.
This is a non-religious, creative arts program. Children from all faiths (or no faith) are welcome and celebrated!

Worship is the heart of our community life. Sunday worship begins at 9:30 a.m. in the sanctuary and online via Zoom and Facebook. All ages are invited. LCC worship is a joyful celebration of God’s presence among us. We find inspiration, renewal, and refreshment through song and silence, prayer, and reflection. We seek to integrate the arts – music, drama, and visual – to enrich the worship experience. Worship continues in the many ways we seek, serve, and grow in the world.

We serve communion on the first Sunday of every month. All are welcome to the table!
On the second Sunday of each month, Pastor Jeff has a conversation with someone from our community about their life and faith journey.

Modern square dancing is a recreation enjoyed by people of all ages all across the United States and around the world. We are currently in the middle of a beginners class emphasizing All Position Dancing (APD), which may be of interest to current dancers seeking more experience with APD and returning dancers who want a full review of all of the calls from Basic, Mainstream, and Plus. Bring your friends or family, or come alone. It’s fun and challenging, and a great way to meet new people. No special clothing required.
The cost per week is $10 for Plus Dancers.
