Maintaining an art practice takes just that: practice! This weekly self-guided class offers a space, structure, and a diverse range of materials for artists to experiment and expand their body of work. Participants will guide the conversation and direction of the class--creating a local community for artists to work, engage in critical dialogue, and grow together with their peers.

Each class will begin with the presentation and examination of a contemporary art piece, followed by independent studio time, and conclude with a facilitated feedback session. All levels and disciplines are welcome!

Materials available.
