The Art Guild Offers Artful Afternoons - Children's Art Studio (ages 8-12)

After the pool or beach, kids can join us for Artful Afternoons - Children’s Art Studio (ages 8-12), Wednesdays beginning July 15, 4:30 - 6 PM, with Nicole Thomas. Nicole is a vibrant, experienced art teacher who works in the Sousa and Salem Elementary Schools in the Port Washington School district. She will have fun projects planned emphasizing painting, drawing, and more! Students will explore different media and projects may include still life, doing self-portraits, learning perspective and working from their imaginations. Emphasis is on fundamentals of art in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Students should wear old clothes to class.

Please find yourself at home at The Art Guild; take a class, participate in an exhibition, come to a lecture, volunteer your time, attend a workshop, or setup an easel on our lovely grounds and paint.
