Mixed Media Magic: Ages 6 - 9
Tuesday, Jan 13 - Feb 17
Students explore a wide variety of materials and techniques as they mix it up with charcoal, markers, found objects, paints, wood, wire, clay, cardboard, etc to form both 2-D and 3-D artworks. This class offers an open choice or choice-based approach to art where students have input on their artistic creation, from the project’s concept to the materials used. This approach empowers students to make their own creative decisions, fostering intrinsic motivation, ownership, and skill development. They build confidence as they acquire new skills and hone existing ones while learning alternative ways to problem solve and create.
Ceramics: Ages 8 -15
Wednesdays, Jan 14 - Feb 18
This course is a continuation of our fall Ceramics Series and welcomes students of all experience levels. As a medium, clay offers endless opportunities for exploring creativity. Continuing students will hone existing skills and learn new ones. Beginning students will learn basics: how to throw pottery on the wheel to creating functional pieces such as cups, bowls, vases, and plates. We’ll also explore hand-building techniques—pinch, coil, and slab—to shape embossed tiles, plaques, pinch and coil pots, figurines, boxes and pots.
