Education programs for all ages are offered as multi-day classes or one-day workshops for youth, teens, adults and families. Art classes and Workshops provide participants with a focused experience within a particular medium, process or concept. Participants work at their own level and pace with guided instruction for skill improvement.
Art Classes and Workshops are taught by local, experienced Artist-Instructors and are designed to encourage artistic development and self-expression. Small class sizes provide participants with individual attention; projects are designed to allow participants the freedom to explore their own potential and creativity.
Laumeier's education programs span many media, including clay, drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture and textiles. Materials are always provided!
