Creating Art With EldersArtists at Any Age


CreativitY, Expression & Skills

Art is about expression. Giving visual voice to ideas and feelings. There is so much untapped talent in the elder population. Art classes bring positive expression, engaged interest, social connection and help maintain fine motor skills. ~

 

Weekly Classes

Working in small classes, two hours a week students are encouraged to trust their own artistic voice. Lessons are presented in logical order to build skills, technique and confidence. Drawing, painting, print-making, colored pencil and pastel instruction emphasized.

Workshops

Custom workshops designed to meet your budget and population. Day-long or a few hours to suit your needs. Focus on encouraging artistic expression and bringing out the artist in everyone.
