Art School Workshops
Art School Workshops are designed for those full-on “art kids” who can spend hours with a variety of art supplies and emerge with smiles and excitement.
Instead of being themed like the rest of our workshops, we hand pick a variety of different projects that have the highest appeal and give children the most opportunities to create their own art, the way they want it.
All kind of amazing animals, objects, vehicles and people may be the result of a fun day at the studio. Plus we always provide guidance and assistance to anyone who needs a little bit of extra support. Participants can expect to work with a wide variety of materials including pens, colored pencils, markers, pastels, watercolor paints, colored papers, and more!
We recommend that participants bring a snack/drink so we can refuel everyone mid-way through each day. Creating master works takes lots of energy!

When kids are attracted to mythology, they’re often times REALLY into it! And we can completely relate! Mythological creatures are fascinating both in their physical appearances and in the history of their origins. We’ll cover a bit of history (because it’s usually pretty fun) and make a couple pieces of artwork. We’ll use a variety of materials to create Dragons, Unicorns, Ogres and more. Register for this one early because it’s likely to fill up!

Few things will help develop painting skills more than portraiture. This workshop will introduce students to a series of projects intended to guide them through the process of creating a portrait painting that demonstrates dimension, light and color. Students should have an intermediate level of drawing skill (at minimum) and some prior painting experience is recommended. This workshop will include all needed supplies and features watercolor, acrylic and water-soluble oil paints and mediums.

Tuition $480
This 5 day workshop will take students through the print-making processes of Monoprinting, Linocut, and Drypoint. Making prints is especially fun since there’s always that anticipation and surprise of the FIRST print made! Monoprints are ALL first prints, but Linocuts and Drypoints offer students the opportunity to create repeat prints and variations. Subject matter will be student’s choice. There’s nothing quite like print making where one “original” can make multiple pieces of art.
