Kids art adventures, 10 weeks of Saturdays.
Start date is September 10, 2022. (September, October, November)
Times: 12:00 – 2:30pm
All children’s art classes will include all materials and equipment needed for their Motive art class experience. In each class we will delve into a quick art history lesson about the artist, style and/or technique whose style we will study and learn about. Then we will begin our artwork, and the teacher will guide and assist the kids through the steps to create an artwork in the style we have studied. Every child will take home a finished piece (or as close as possible depending on their level) after each class.
Please bring a water bottle.
Ages: 8 – 14
Cost: $50 per child drop in per class or $435 for all sessions
