Good things happen at the Williamstown Youth Center After-School Program. In addition to our programs and classes, we offer a learning center (open every day), a game room, art classes, and dance opportunities for anyone enrolled in the After-School Program.
Snowshoeing and Cross-Country Skiing
Wednesday afternoons, starting in December, look for Snowshoeing & Cross-Country Ski trips from the Youth Center. These trips are FREE. Dress warmly, equipment and transportation are provided. Call the Youth Center for more information or to sign up. Limit 10 per trip. CHAPERONES AND SNOW NEEDED!
The Learning Center and Homework Support
Homework support is available every day after school at the WYC. Students can expect: a quiet place to work; supervision by a professional teacher and/or Williams College or High School student; free use of school supplies and learning resources (including computers and printer); assistance with work that is difficult; and, most important, an atmosphere of respect and enthusiasm for school work, creativity and learning. The learning center has become a very popular area of the Youth Center.
After School Art
Come to the WYC art classes, where students use a variety of media such as paint, plaster, found objects, paper mache and more! There will be fun projects that will result in art works to take home, masks, group murals, and holiday gifts. Taught by Diane Sullivan, our own professional artist-in-residence, After School Art is free to anyone enrolled in the regular after school program. Any Youth Center member may attend 12 of these art classes at no additional charge.
