Please note: this course costs $240-$475 on a sliding scale, materials included. You will pay a $100 deposit through my website to hold your spot, and then I will follow up with you to figure out the payment plan (up to 3 installments) and amount that works best for you. THREE TUITION-FREE SPOTS ARE AVAILABLE THIS SESSION (with an optional transportation stipend).

FOR: Adults 18+ (Beginner level; 12 people max)

WHEN: September 18th to November 20th (10 weeks)

Wednesdays 6:30-8:30 @ the Northrup King Building

WHAT:

For the first half, we will build a basic understanding of composition and color theory through exercises/small projects that will result in several finished pieces for you to take home. For the second half, each person will create a collaged portrait (of yourself or another person) using a technique that draws upon the previous exercises. While people will mostly work individually, I hope to foster group connection through collaborative exercises, check-ins, and opportunities for people to share their art with each other. Whether you are looking for a place to creatively recharge mid-week (with very low stakes!) or to push your artistic practice, this class is for you.

COVID PRECAUTIONS: I will have an air purifier running at all times. I will offer snacks & drinks every session and strongly encourage people to wear masks (if they are able) when they are not eating/drinking. I have been living with Long Covid for 9 months and it's no joke... let's all take care of each other!

NO-SHOW POLICY ON DAY #1: If you do not show up on Day 1 and do not communicate with me about your absence, then I will offer your spot to someone on the waitlist.
