Visual Arts Classes

One of the primary focuses of expanding our summer offerings was the inclusion of visual arts classes for the youth of the area.  We are excited to make that come to fruition.

This summer we will be offering three different three week classes.  One for each of three different age groups.  Each class runs Monday-Thursday, June 10-27, with each week of the class focusing on a new and different art technique.

Registration for our art classes is $100.  Students registering for Art and Summer Youth Theatre will receive the art class registration at half off.
