Art Studio - Sculpture

Develop and strengthen fundamental art skills in our teen art studio - sculpture class! 

This course focuses on foundational skills of sculpture and materials.  In this class, teen students will learn and refine the fundamental practice of form as we practice sculpture techniques and practices. Together, we actively develop and strengthen sculptural skills as we learn form, space, and various materials.  Together students may work with clay, wood, metal, cardboard, casting with molds, or paper.  We will also gain inspiration from contemporary artists working across the country as we look at their work, and talk about their process.
