art lab
|
Fourth Saturday of the month from 10 am - noon
next Art Lab: July 25 This 2 hour class is all about technique and process art. In this class we will learn a new technique which will be used as a spring board for art exploration. This class is not about a final project but more about the art journey. Kids will learn techniques that will equip and inspire them to carry what they have learned and practiced in class through to their at home art practice and daily art play. This class will meet on 6/27, 7/25, 8/8 and 8/22 and will be taught by Sarah Scott and Donna Coffman. We will offer classes for ages 5-8 and 9-12ish :) We are meeting during the summer months to see how this class goes, if all goes well we will continue through the year meeting twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays when possible. This class is an addition to our Saturday Kids line-up which already includes Paint and Pizza on the first Sat. of every month. The cost of the class is $30 per 2 hour class and will include a take home supply that they will learn how to use during Art Lab time. This month we will focus on Creating Imaginary Creatures using unusual methods. They will learn how to look at shapes and textures for inspiration and how to create artful starting points as jumping off idea generators for creative imaginary animals. Email Donna to register. Pre-register by 24 hours before class. Registration will close when the class fills or by 24 hours before class. |
policy - please read
If discipline or behavior issues arise, at MWCA’s teacher’s discretion, we may request that a parent or other responsible adult attend class and assist with the student’s instruction. Our art classes are a step above what is commonly offered and are technique-based. Very often, fine art supplies and tools are used (not craft-level). As such, concentration and attention to instruction is needed; disruption cannot be an on-going concern. When necessary, MWCA reserves the right to refund any unused class fees and suspend the student from further participation. Students are expected to behave in an age-appropriate manner, sit in a classroom setting, take instruction and handle art supplies and equipment with care and respect. Thank you for understanding.
