CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

Printmaking 101
Joan Mamelok
Starts October 11

Explore the process of producing monotypes using a variety of techniques and methods, all from the simple principle of transferring ink from a piece of Plexiglass to paper. This class will cover stenciling, wiping, color mixing, painting, linoleum, paper lithography, and dry point shellac plates, with an emphasis on layering.

Extreme Drawing Workshop
Timothy Cross
Starts October 23

Bring an empty sketch book and leave this
workshop with it filled! Speed drawing
allows artists to immediately establish strong compositions and essential proportions, which can then be developed at a more leisurely pace.

YOUTH CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

Weekly, drop-in sessions through November 10
