This art experience is geared for children who love to be creative. Techniques will be demonstrated, examples shown, while their own creative ideas are encouraged. They're having  fun enjoying the process of exploration and self expression. Children love the weekly themes of  magical creatures, wild animals, birds, people, our pets and ocean mammals. Examples of some art they'll make during bird week are a clay bird mask, a wire bird sculpture, a collage 3-D box environment with birds, bird drawings, and a painting of a duck in watercolor. They'll  learn about the materials and about wild life too. Always something new each week for the returning student.  No disruptive behavior  problems allowed. Students should wear clothes that can get dirty and bring a snack with them. 

Visit Art Works Downtown, hours open Tues. thru Sat. 10 - 5. We have a gallery featuring new exhibits, art events, retail stores, 30 artist studios, and a variety of classes available.

"It's so important to learn to be able to express your self in a creative way. I love when they've turned a blank piece of paper or a simple idea and make it into something truly unique and wonderful. Then seeing the student's smile of confidence.  It makes my teaching art the best job I've ever had."  Susan
