story haven

The idea is simple: use story and drama to develop a child’s creativity, expression and confidence.  Veteran actress Anna Nugent recently envisioned Story Haven as a safe place for kids to create and play.  Combining her experience as a professional actress and over a decade of teaching drama in various settings with inspiration from the Montessori approach, Anna created this special program to provide affordable programs that ignite creativity in the children of Jersey City.
Story Haven workshops are taught in small group sessions by professionals in the fields of education and drama.  Each session includes a story followed by a time of wondering, warm-ups, ensemble-building activities, improvisation, drama games, presentation, and reflection.

Summer sessions for children ages 7-12 will be held:
2-5 PM
Mon - Thurs, July 19-29

Grace Church Van Vorst (enter via the red door on 2nd Street)
39 Erie Street, downtown Jersey City
Registration is required, and space is limited.
Cost: $200 per child for the two week session
