goodgollycr Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I was thinking of taking the youngest to the performance but thought my older boys might be interested in the workshop depending on what it's like. Anyone done one? Care to share what it's like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalanamak Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I didn't go to a workshop, but saw him live and he is TERRIFIC in person. Better than on tape. He's adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singing mom Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 We haven't been to a workshop with him either but he is probably one of the NICEST people you'll ever meet!! Me and my kids went and heard him this summer at a couple venues, one in the afternoon and the other in the evening. At the evening venue, he came up to us and thanked us for coming back. Absolutely go if you have the chance, if only to meet and personally talk to him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo Ninja Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 We have been, and I think it is good for all ages! Jim Weiss is as nice in person as he sounds on his recordings, and he is great speaker. There is no time to get bored, even for teens. He is very interesting. I recommend you all go.

happyhomemaker25 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 So thankful for this thread. We have an opportunity to hear him speak and do a workshop next month. I think I'll sign us all up for the speaking and everyone who is old enough for the workshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodgollycr Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks for the input. I've signed us all up for both. Julie, maybe we'll see you there. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMW Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I went several years back and took along my oldest son, who was then about the age 10 and a reluctant reader. He loved going with me, thoroughly enjoyed the two days and took a bit with him for life... It was inspiring and fun for both of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melinda in VT Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 My poor public-schooled kids ;) had him as their artist-in-residence one year. I wasn't in on the classroom sessions, but I know that all three of my kids (two 5th graders and a preschool student) loved his time at their school.

goodgollycr Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 Here is the calendar from his site: http://www.greathall.com/schedule.html I just happened to be looking at a local CC class site that mentioned he was coming on a specific date.

Someone in my homeschooling group sent an email asking if anyone was interested in going. I squealed with delight, I was so excited.
