Description
Homeschool students ages 8 and upward are invited to join us as we journey through various types and styles of art. Students in this secular, hands-on class work through different projects based on techniques used throughout history, combined with mini-studies on artists and their work throughout the semester.
Artistic Adventures
Class is 90 minutes long on Thursdays, 12:30-2pm
Registration is for Spring 2024 semester-long course (12 weeks starting the week of Jan. 29th)
[rara_toggle title=”Required Materials” status=”close”]
Students will need:
- smock to protect clothing**
- pencils
- pencil sharpener with covered blade (you should not be able to touch the blade unless you remove a covering)
- pencil bag to contain items
- scissors
- pocket folder
**Students can choose to wear a shirt that can be damaged under a sweater or sweatshirt rather than a smock. Parents will be asked for their preference before first class. Consider a possible larger family member’s old, heavyweight shirt. Whatever is used should be easy to put on and take off, and should cover students from neck to wrist, and to hips without being so large that it gets in their way of working/moving around.
All other materials needed to complete in-class art projects are included in the cost of the course.

Students who struggle to speak to others in a respectful manner would not be well-suited to this course. Many students are sensitive to the criticism of others. The culture of our coschool is one of respect and being able to give constructive or dissenting opinions in a way that preserves good relationships.
