Art Classes for Children and Teens, Ages 8-18.
Our 12th year!
The Bottlebrush Gallery offers individual (private) classes for children and teens. Subjects include drawing, painting, mixed media. Classes meet once weekly for an hour, and the cost is $30 per session. Please note these are not one-off, standalone crafty classes. Each class builds upon the previous to create the optimum experience in the art-immersion location of a professional art gallery.
Your child must bring their own art supplies (drawing pad, pencils) and may be required to wear a mask for indoor class meetings if COVID cases rise. Weather-permitting, students can make their art outside, depending on the project. We provide art supplies for special projects outside of drawing/sketching.
Special interest classes area available such as how to draw super heroes, developing skills in realistic drawing, plein air (drawing outside), drawing from live models, and the meaning and creation of abstract art. We have worked with students to develop their skills and prepare their portfolios for art school applications including Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School and teach home school students as well.
Guest artists are brought in occasionally to teach specialized art skills.
Please contact the Gallery if you are interested in enrolling your child or teen. Preferred contact is by email at bottlebrushgallery at yahoo.com. We will schedule an evaluation meeting, then plan the class so it works with both of our schedules. Parents must complete a consent form for their child upon registration (or at the class meeting time) and pay in advance. |
