This ongoing weekly art class focuses on three-dimensional art and craft projects. Designed for young artists ages 8-12, this captivating class is a mix of instructor demonstrations, work time, and one-on-one assistance. We will explore the fundamentals of 3D art including line, form, composition, shape, motion, and concept. The materials used will be easily found in the home or an art supply store and include paper, cardboard, recycled plastics, yarn, fabric, wood, found objects, plasticine...

Students will gain understanding of three-dimensional art techniques and materials. They will grow their sense of artistic identity, foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and learn to articulate the ideas and choices they made in their artwork.
