Art Club for Teens

Wednesdays from 5:30-7:00 PM 
Sept 03- Nov 19

Recommended ages 13+

Art Club at GAC is all about the natural exploration of visual arts. We’re here to help you grow your creative skills, boost visual knowledge and tackle new challenges with confidence. Our instructors show you a range of techniques, tools, and ideas—plus you’ll get inspired by what’s happening right now in the art world, including GAC’s changing exhibits, and learning from local working artists. Over the semester, you’ll have plenty of time to experiment with drawing, painting, sculpting, and even ceramics, discovering your unique style along the way.

This semester-long program will allow students to explore art through a variety of different media, including drawing, painting, sculpting, and ceramics.

All materials and supplies for this class are included with registration.
