Welcome to Wild Imagination Classes -- online afterschool classes in creativity taught by artist and educator Caitlin Rose Moore. Caitlin is experienced as a tutor in the arts: literacy, creative writing, art and art history. She also tutors children in subjects such as identity, gender, social justice and community. She is a strong believer in racial justice and brings everyone to the table.
These classes let children stretch their imaginations through character-invention, visual art, science, creative writing, and play.
As the classes are taught online, children from all over the world are welcome!

Mission Statement
At Wild Imagination Classes, the most important thing is empowerment through play, whatever form that may take. It can be creating characters in acting and story writing -- the power of wearing an animal mask, showing your true self. It can be in art, creating things that sprout with life and energy. Then there is the beauty of words and expressive imagery. There is a power that comes with telling a part of your life and owning it while using your imagination and making up fanciful stories. We learn so much about each other through our different backgrounds, cultures, genders and even species. By understanding each other and characters and histories we can be active, thoughtful, socially just human beings at all ages. In this time of isolation in particular, we can learn from each other. Children can connect with other children all around the world while celebrating art and play. This is the purpose of Wild Imagination Classes.
