Young Artists Ages 12-17
Weeks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 | Arts Quad | Ages 12-17
Drawing, Painting, or Sculpture are avenues for exploration within this class. We will tackle new projects exploring the basic techniques of art while emphasizing creativity and exploration. Wear old clothes to class and come ready to immerse yourself in the studio. Work with the brilliant Samuel Peck who is an artist himself and specializes in working with young artists and giving them freedom as well as direction to express and construct projects individually and as a group. Please email the teacher beforehand if you or your young artist could benefit from certain adaptations or support. Materials are available in the Bookstore.
