Westfield Announcements

          As this holiday season approaches, the savvy shopper will be even more cognizant of selecting a gift that is not only financially sound, but is  exciting and enduring as well.  A gift of participation in the  arts allows the recipient, of any age, to acquire a new skill or continue to develop an existing talent.  

          The New Jersey Workshop for the Arts can assist the gift giver to make a wise decision regarding that special  holiday purchase, without the usual confusion over appropriate colors, sizes or styles.  The NJWA will issue a gift certificate in any financial amount that can be used for any of its varied programs.

          The NJWA Music Studio offers vocal and instrumental lessons for both children and adults. Youngsters  may also select to enroll in group piano, guitar or vocal lessons.  A 4 or 5 year old child  may enjoy participating in Kids ‘n’ Arts, where children experience art, music and theater crafts. 

           Perhaps the recipient of this gift certificate will have an interest in joining the Westfield Fencing Club, which offers lessons in saber, foil and epee. These classes are designed for both children, ages 10 and older, and for adults. 

          The gift certificate can be used toward tuition for the Westfield Summer Workshop, a program of arts, crafts, communications, dance, drama, music and special interests  for students in  pre-school  to  grade 8. The  WSW program also includes a major musical theater production for aspiring actors  in  grades 6 through 12.

          Another way in which the certificate can be used is toward a purchase at the NJWA Music Store, if the receiver is interested in instruments or other musical inventory.

          Make your holidays a  more meaningful experience, one  that shows your thoughtfulness.  To purchase a gift certificate, phone  908-789-9696, visit  the NJWA studios at 150-152 East Broad Street in Westfield or   log  on to www.njworkshopforthearts.com for information about all NJWA programs.
