Workshop Description

This eight-week workshop allows teens to foster their creativity by learning from local artists! It's an open space for kids to develop an appreciation for the arts, while learning new techniques and work with various materials. The sessions will alternate between classroom-style teaching (where the kids will learn from various facilitators) and studio time (where they will have time to complete their projects).
