Elementary Art!


Elementary students are welcome in either of our Art classes!

 
3D Art *
Thursdays ~ 1:30pm-3:00pm
All Grades Welcome.
This class allows students to enhance their creativity through the planning and construction of 3 dimensional pieces of art. We will be introducing students to a variety of mediums and techniques. Recommended grades are based on participation and the student's work is not subject to critique. All projects will be done (based on age and ability) in class for a certain length of time (determined per project).  Further work on a piece can be finished at home if the student is unable to complete their project during the allotted class time. Completion is not required, however, unfinished work can not be entered into the end of semester art shows.

Artistic Quests *
Wednesdays ~ 1:30pm-3:00pm
All Grades Welcome.
This class will introduce or expand upon a student’s knowledge of composition, color theory, and proportion using a variety of mediums. The class is exposure and project-based with little to no homework.  Recommended grades are based on participation and the student's work is not subject to critique. All projects will be done (based on age and ability) in class for a certain length of time (determined per project).  Further work on a piece can be finished at home if the student is unable to complete their project during the allotted class time. Completion is not required, however, unfinished work can not be entered into the end of semester art shows.
