Holiday Art Classes -Sign-up NOW!

Well, there will only be a few weeks available for me to squeeze in some more art classes after this current session ends.  For those who were on the waiting list for the Once Upon an Art Class that I planned to repeat after this one ends, I will be offering it starting in January as there are not enough weeks available Nov-Dec to do the class in full.  Those on the waiting list already will have first shot at the January class.

But, in the meantime, I have a couple of wonderful short-term options to take us into the Christmas season!  Holiday classes are always popular, so sign-up NOW (and receive the Early Bird Discount)!

Amazing 3-D Mega-Masks
Nov. 15, 29, & Dec 6
Thursdays 3:00-4:30
Ages 10 years and older

This 3-meeting class will focus on the creation of at least one unique wall-hanging hand-built/sculpted mask.  Students will design and build these creations using papier-mache', air-dry clay, paint, and assorted enhancements (i.e. feathers, sequins, etc. - as needed).  Class #1 will involve creating the mask base, class #2 will involve practice and the building of features, and class #3 will focus on the painting and decoration.  This is a great opportunity to explore creating in 3-dimensions for a change with results that are truly one-of-a-kind!

Class Size Limit: 10 (need a minimum of 6 students)

Early Bird Rate (if received by Oct. 28th): $45 per first student; $30 per additional sibling

(New) ATC's: Artist Trading Cards
Ages 10-adult
Tuesdays beginning November 8th (5 meetings) 3:00-4:00
*Note that because this is more of a “studio” class, this class is open to a wide age range of students. Open-ended lessons are planned to offer inspiration and direction, but the student is free to explore the materials based on their own abilities.

Welcome to the world of “ATC’s” - an international art trend started in the 90’s in which artists create small original works of art to trade with others. Students will create custom art trading cards using a variety of materials such as oil pastel, watercolor, color pencil, paint and collage. The only rule behind the ATC movement is that cards measure 2 ½” x 3 ½” and that cards be traded but not sold (or you can keep them for yourself). Each student will receive a plastic trading card protector sheet in which to keep their cards.

Early Bird Registration: $45 per first student; $30 per additional student (same family)

Registration After Nov. 1st:  $55 per first student; $40 per additional student

(New) Christmas Around the World
Ages 6-12
Thursdays beginning November 10th (5 meetings) 3:30-4:30

It’s almost Christmas and there’s no better time to take a little trip around the world. We will “visit” 4 or 5 countries, learn about their Christmas traditions and how say “Merry Christmas” in the native languages, and create a simple holiday craft from that country. This will be a fun, light-hearted, and interesting way to ring in the season.

Early Bird Registration:  $45 per first student; $30 per additional student (same family)

Registration After Nov. 1st:  $55 per first student; $40 per additional student
