NEW Exploring Art Class for January 2015!

Exploring Art – 

Basic Concepts and Skills

*PART – 1

Ages 9 years to adult (or with instructor approval)

8 WEEKLY meetings Starting January 13^th, 2015

Tuesdays
TWO CLASS TIMES AVAILABLE:
10:00-11:00 OR 4:00-5:00

At Pine Grove Baptist Church

This beginning course is perfect for young artists and/or those who have not had art instruction before.  We will take an “exploration” approach to basic skills and concepts such as line, shape, and composition with a variety of materials (including wire sculpture).  The focus of this class is on strengthening and working from observation skills rather than “how to draw” things.  We will further our study of line and shape through discussions and activities based on the Abstract art of Wassily Kandinsky and Joan Miro’

*Part – 2 will be offered for another 8 weeks starting March 24.  You do not have to have had Part – 1 to enroll in Part – 2 (but it is helpful).  Enrollment will be opened up to Part 1 students first, and any open spots after that can then be filled by incoming students.

Class Size Limit: 10 (5 student minimum)

If there is a waiting list, I will consider offering a 2^nd class on Tuesday mornings 10-11

Class Fee (includes all supplies)

Early Bird Deal if paid by January 2 = $60.00 per first student, $40.00 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
