Register Now For Winter Art Classes!
Looking for a special winter activity for yourself or a child? Avoid the winter blues and sign-up for an art class!
We have many exciting art classes for both children and adults. Our art classes provide students with hand-on experiences in a variety of materials. Here’s a comment from a student in one of our recent adult classes: “I really enjoy taking classes here. Jan is a great watercolor teacher. I am looking forward to the drawing class also.” No previous art experience is required, but be ready to discover your creativity and experiment with the joy and freedom of your self-expression!
Children love our exciting art classes too! Our creative clay projects will teach the basics as well as creative hand-building techniques to include pinching, coiling, sculpture, and glazing. In Art Exploration, children use a variety of media in 2D and 3D formats for this project based class. Children have the opportunity to explore varied art techniques and traditions, which establishes a solid base for branching out their artistic pursuits.
