Instructor: Linda Hendricks and Shannon Pagano Time: 11 am - 1 pm Location: Art Place Studio Classroom Fee: $10 Donation
Previously this class was known as Acrylics Without Boundaries. We want to now include watercolor, pastels and drawing projects as well! Are you an artist, beginner or skilled, and would like to do art with others? Join us!
Bring your paints, pens, brushes, papers and canvases and let's paint together! Join like-minded creatives for a two-hour facilitated Art session. You can either paint what you want or get feedback and direction from one of our studio artists. All levels of experience are welcome!
Life drawing is the activity of drawing the human body from a live model. The models are typically nude, but there may be sessions in which we have models in clothing. Life drawing is a great way to build your drawing skills. These sessions are not a class but facilitated sessions. The sessions are structured, and we have short as well as longer poses. The $10.00 fee is to provide payment to the model. The sessions will be held two times per month from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The space in the classroom can be tight, so we are requesting that you sign up for the sessions to ensure that everyone has enough space. Easels, tables, and chairs are provided. more info...

Did you know that 40 minutes of creating art lowers the level of cortisol (the stress hormone) in the body? Art really does heal, and it's fun, too. Join us on the third Sunday of the month to take a short creative break at our Collage Playshop. No experience is necessary.
Creating art is just playing with materials. Most of us might already have our supplies ready and organized, but just don't have or take the time to play and create! This free Sunday session offers the time, space, and supplies to encourage playing and creating to anyone who is interested.
Kate will provide an embarrassment of collage supplies (including magazines, catalogs, glue sticks, foundation, etc.) to get folks started. Attendees can bring something they're already working on, their own images, magazines, etc. (be sure to bring your own scissors!) Prompts will be offered, but it's completely up to you what you want to collage! This is a casual gathering to bring the community together to create art and everyone is welcome to join! Bring a friend!
This event is free but requires registration. There is a $5.00 room use fee that will be collected and given to the Art League. more info...
