Tahoe Expedition Academy Mindfulness in Art
In 2022, Tahoe Expedition Academy (TEA) middle schoolers and high schoolers came to the Roundhouse for a week-long ”Mindfulness in Art” Intensive course. The students worked with expert artists to learn skills in Textiles and Ceramics. Students created mugs, bowls, and luminaries in the Ceramics Shop and custom-designed totes, lavender-filled eye pillows, and scrunchies in the Textiles Shop.
Our programs give students the self-confidence to use new tools and technology while also teaching self-reliance, resourcefulness, and creative problem-solving. Beyond learning design, our programs instill a belief that if you can dream it, you can make it, and the world can be modified, adapted, repaired, and reclaimed.
Tahoe Expedition Academy is a coeducational Pre-K-12 school located on 42-acres in Truckee, California, minutes away from beautiful Lake Tahoe. TEA is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and was created ten years ago to change the face of education and harness the infinite power of the next generation of problem solvers.
