Students will learn techniques for effective visual storytelling; we will design our art to captivate the viewer and narrate a scene. This class will introduce picture book layout, pacing, character design, sketching thumbnail compositions for a spread, to finally illustrate a full colored finished piece. Our storyboarding will encourage us to explore humor, wonder, depths of emotion, and the fantastical through our illustrations.

Halloween Houses
Ghost, ghouls, and goblins all need a place to call home. Spooktacular fun will be had while creating a haunted house from clay.
Story of Art Through the Ages
Starting with ancient Paleolithic cave paintings, how did human artistic expression evolve throughout the millennia to what we see in contemporary art today? Creating visual art is a shared impulse across the globe, cultures, and time. We will explore the major art movements and masterpieces from around the world, in chronological order, revealing common threads of emotion and expression. It is a living story that continues to expand, always reemerging from the seed of a single human experience.
Wheel Try It 8

A nominal $40 fee includes enough clay for two completed pieces as well as firing and glazing. All ages are welcome, but children 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Potter’s wheel not recommended for children under 8.
