    Description

    For artists grades 9 - 12.
    Students in 8th grade may be considered.

    Class meets Wednesdays 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm. 

    Join us for a fourteen-week in-person program offered to cur­rent high school stu­dents (grades 9 – 12) inter­ested in build­ing new skills for their cre­ative pur­suits. This studio-based program helps you develop a strong creative portfolio and includes opportunities for critique, portfolio reviews, and guidance on documenting and presenting artwork. The course includes ample time and space to develop your own creative work, while also providing lessons in art materials and methods, art history, and professional practices. 

    This class is taught by local studio artists, including Royce Deans, who will provide individualized instruction to help students reach their goals and create portfolio quality work. Students in 8th grade may be considered for the program (as space allows) with a recommendation from an art teacher, mentor, CTAC faculty, and/or a portfolio. 

    January 10 - April 24

    March 20 - Make Up session in the event that we have a snow day Jan 10 - March 13

    March 27 - No class: Spring Break
