This is a fun canvas painting class designed to allow students to learn the techniques of acrylic painting on canvas. Each class will focus on a variety of subjects suitable for young minds - frogs, cats, castles, flowers, sports, owls and the list goes on and on. Students will work on an 11 x 14 canvas each class.

This art class is designed for students 14 to 17 years of age and will be teaching the Principles and Elements of Art in a project based art environment. Projects may consist of the following media: pencil, ink, charcoal, pastels, markers, paint and mixed-media. A success oriented lesson plan will be based on individual students' skills and interests.

The Kids' Art Workshop is held usually on the first Saturday of the month, except September because of Labor Day. Students come and work with three Master Degree'd Art Teachers to create three separate projects during the three hours of the workshop. Students will paint on canvas, produce a mixed media project and create kid friendly clay projects. Students will return in two weeks to paint their clay projects on a Sunday afternoon, 1:00-2:00 pm. Seasonal art is sometimes used as a theme.

This art class is designed for ages 9-13 yrs. Even though we follow the Missouri Guidelines for Art Education, our goal is to create exciting but enriching projects that keep students interested. A firm foundations of the elements and principles of art are taught in each project. We will enjoy such projects as clay, painting, printmaking, weaving, mixed media, fibers and some seasonal projects. The more experience students have in a non-threatening environment such as our art studio, the more confidence they will acquire as they tackle other experiences in life.

This art class is for ages 5-8 yrs. We will experience many media and art concepts during the year in our friendly studio. Students will learn basic skills such as drawing, cutting with scissors, painting, mixed media, and clay while expressing their own response to fun topics and themes. Learning to listen to a teacher and to follow basic directions is an added plus. We encourage personal expression while learning to develop basic art skills. This is a well-rounded class that sets young students on a firm foundation of art development.

Now, on any given day, 100,000 flights transport people and products between any two points on Earth in a matter of hours.
