SUMMER 2022
Young Artists Program
Our Young Artists program is designed to encourage creativity, with an emphasis on process rather than product. Children and teens can explore a variety of art forms online and in person this season. Most importantly, positive acceptance of each child’s artistry builds confidence and enhances self-worth. Please note: in-studio classes are designed in accordance with NJ state covid guidelines. School protocols are accessed continually to ensure safety. SECURITY RULES REQUIRE THAT YOU COME INTO THE SCHOOL TO DROP OFF AND PICK UP YOUR CHILD FOR IN-STUDIO CLASSES.

Where have you been, and where would you like to go? Children in this class will draw and paint scenes from the city, country, ocean, sky, and outer space. We can create with pencils, markers, oil pastels, watercolors, and tempera paints. Inspiration may come from studying works by artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Grant Wood.
Children will learn the start to finish process of working with clay on the wheel and hand-building techniques. Building new skills each week, they will create various functional and decorative items using slabs and wheel thrown pots they have made. Creativity and fun is added when they learn to alter pots, make handles, feet, create textures and design surfaces for finishing touches.
