Youth Lessons
Aimed at developing creativity and confidence, weekly afterschool classes will explore both traditional and playful drawing, painting and sculptural techniques.
Each week we will start with a warm up sketch as everyone settles in. Then we will work on a larger project until it is time to run around outside and eat snack. After snack students will have the option to work on their own independent works or continue on the structured project.
