Paint and draw with Joalida in her art studio at the Gorton Center! In this on-going class Joalida works with teens exploring different mediums, techniques and subject matter to discover their art style. These classes are unstructured, meeting your teen where they are in their art development and guiding them through individual attention to become more confident in their art making. All materials are provided. Ages 11 – 17
*Please note this is an art development class, not an after school club. Prior art experience and a keen interest in art required. Your teen will be asked to leave if they cannot adhere to the rules of the art room.
