Saturday Art Classes
For
students in grades K-12
Sponsored by DP&L
The goal of these classes is to introduce young artists to the vast connections between art and life. These
Saturday classes focus on teaching young artists to be
creative, to think outside the box and to take risks. The
instructors have been selected to provide a variety of artistic
styles, media and expression. Class will be held
every Saturday of each month, except holidays. Volunteers
are always welcome to assist young people in creating!
Saturday
Art Classes:
Elementary Studio (Grades K-6)

If you can only make it to one class, please tell the artist in advance and s/he will arrange for you to complete your project that day. Please wear your studio clothes, as our classes tend to be a bit on the messy side.

Cost: Art Club Pass for four Saturdays - $50 per member or $80 per non-member; $20 per individual workshop
