ArtSplot classes
Join us for the following: any combination of days may be chosen, cost is $60 per day or $250 for the week. For ages six and up.
*Monday, March 14th, 9:00 - 3:00 - Clay. Students will create two hand built projects, learning basic methods and sculpture techniques, using two different clay bodies of different color. They will be under glazed on this day, kiln fired, and ready for pick up within two weeks. Please do retrieve your ceramic projects!
*Tuesday, 15th - Painting with acrylic on canvas.* We have arranged for The Raptor Center to bring in birds for our students to observe, draw from, and gain science knowledge as well.* This is cool! They will use their sketches, notes on colors etc. to create a painting.
* Wednesday, 16th - Printmaking. Students will create "plates" to print using our historic press. Printmaking in this method is specialized because of the press.
*Thursday, 17th - Mixed Media. Students will delve into understanding "Pop Art." We will look at American cultural items of the past and present, discuss the common vernacular, and create artwork in response.
*Friday, 18th - Sculpture, in response to our trip to NYC to MoMA to see "Picasso Sculpture."
Class size is limited. Register early at ArtSplot.com or call Chelsea at 587-8424. Online registrants please follow up with an email to confirm.
