Our qualified, experienced instructors will visit your school to present engaging art workshops designed to help you fulfill your visual art curriculum. If you wish, we can design a series of several workshops to support your classroom needs.
We offer hands-on, practical, enlightening, and fun projects through various methods of art making. All materials and equipment are supplied. Discuss the possibilities with gallery staff!
Workshops can accommodate all ages and abilities, although we require an adult helper with Grades K-3. We can work with most classroom sizes, up to about 25 participants per workshop. We’ll be glad to use the art room at your school but if one isn’t available, a regular classroom will do nicely.
