Explore the work and artistic methods of major contemporary artists in a hands-one capacity. Each week we will take an in-depth look at fascinating artists like El Anatsui, Yayoi Kusama, and Olafur Eliasson, among others. We will cover their methods, content, and histories in order to create artwork inspired by the work of each artist.

Connect with the historic artists of the past by stepping into their smocks. Your child will explore the work, techniques, history, and wisdom of important artists from art history like Rembrandt, Monet, and Duchamp, among others. Each week we will create artwork using the techniques and imagery of these artists in order to both learn from history and inspire your child’s creative spark.

Step into the great outdoors and connect with nature through art. In this course we will utilize materials and inspiration from nature to create weekly artworks with processes ranging from creating our own dyes and paints from natural materials to making sun prints. Students will gather materials on nature walks and recommended excursions.

Carpe Diem! This October, explore the world of the macabre as we learn about memento mori (Latin for “remember that you die”) through the ages. From vanitas still lifes to funerary inscriptions, we will learn about the rich culture of mortality in Western culture. Each week we will learn about a different aspect of death culture through art which will connect to foundational art lessons. We will use this information to make five new artworks. For example, our section on the Danse Macabre from the Dark ages will also teach us about movement and figure drawing in art. We will end the class by creating a large, finished work that combines all these techniques into your own personal memento mori artwork.
