Workshops for All
"I Can Draw" Workshop for children ~ Friday, Mar 17th
Join us for our “I CAN Draw” Workshops. During this 2-hour workshops, students are immersed in the art-making process. As children create, they learn “take-home” drawing skills. They are amazed by how quickly time passes and so impressed with their own finished artwork.
Each workshop will feature a new project. Our studio is a supportive and creative environment allowing young artists the freedom to explore their own potential and nurture their self-esteem while building a strong repertoire of techniques and skills. Students will be exposed to a variety of art forms from realistic to abstract and explore a range of media.
Workshops are limited to 10 students. All materials are provided. Dates usually correspond with non-instructional school days.

THE BASICS OF DRAWING ~ AN EXPLORATION
(7 YEARS & OLDER)
Everything starts with drawing! Drawing is all about looking, making a mark and practicing how to to express what you see or feel.
Using Aliki’s 7-Step system, students gain an understanding of drawing fundamentals. Your child will be drawing independently with confidence after 1 hour of instruction! Student artists will learn to see how an artist sees, and practice tips and tricks for drawing realistically like a pro. They will learn to let go of perfectionism and turn their “mistakes” into abstract inspirations and new discoveries.
This art camp is geared to children 7 years and older who are beginning their artistic journey, as well as drawing enthusiasts without prior formal drawing instruction. Students take home a collection of 10-12 art pieces.
