Classes for Children

Our goal is for our young artists to both learn and have a great time doing it! With a small group of children, sparks of creativity can be seized upon and used as jumping-off points for greater exploration and expression. A child's meandering creativity is respected and hopefully enriched by our guidance. Our small classes enable us to teach real skills effectively. We have the time and freedom to stop and discuss a piece of art or a period in art history at the moment when it becomes relevant in a child's work.

In this class our young artists will create work inspired by American artists Faith Ringold and Katherine Bradford. Taking from Ringold’s book Tar Beach they will make their version of a story quilt, imagining themselves flying above their homes with family, friends and pets as they survey the world below them. And looking at Bradford’s Super Girl paintings, they will depict themselves as super girls and super boys. Dreamy!
