VISUAL ARTS INSTRUCTION

In the Visual Arts Department, ALL are welcome, beginners through advanced. Achieve your artistic goals, strengthen your skills, and give your creativity wings.

A perfect start to art with Early Childhood Classes

The Art Department is a wonderful place to develop creativity, coordination, cognitive, and multi-sensory skills. A variety of class options are available for children ranging from 2-6 years old. Students create in an engaging, encouraging, and age-appropriate way. Due to classes using many different art supplies, we suggest enrollment in visual art classes for those children who no longer explore by putting items in their mouth.

Ceramics

The Visual Arts Department proudly features an extensive variety of classes that focus on working with clay for ages 3 and up. Adult Ceramics and Clay Studio (Adult) have an additional clay fee of $15 per bag. Clay can be purchased at Customer Experience.
