Exploring Mixed Media for ages 9-12
Winter Class | Available
Join the fun as we mix and match drawing, painting, collage, printmaking, and more. Be inspired by the world around us, storytelling, and images from our imagination. We’ll start with guided experiences to see how different materials work together. Students are encouraged to pick their favorite ways to create mixed media art based on personal interests and ideas shared with classmates.
