Art Classes for Kids & Teens Ages 6-16
Members: $25 per class

During the school year, weekends are the perfect time for creating art at the Museum. Led by one of our on-site instructors, students learn new artistic processes and techniques followed by an interactive art project formatted to fit their age level. Each Saturday Studio session features a different theme working with media such as printmaking, painting, drawing, sculpture, and collage.
