mornings workshop notes…Whether you’re a regular, or this is your first encounter with our creative classes for kids and adults, welcome!

Since 1927, the Creative Workshop has been offering high-quality art classes for all ages and skill levels. Our goal, in keeping with the Memorial Art Gallery’s mission, is to create a stimulating environment where diverse audiences can experience lifelong learning of the visual arts.

The Workshop’s outstanding faculty are all working artists who have entensive teaching backgrounds. They lead classes designed to inspire new ideas, encourage habits of good craftsmanship, and nurture artistic ability.

Maybe this will be the summer you stop saying “I can’t draw” and start drawing. Perhaps the inseparable seven-year-olds on your street will take the same pot-tery class every morning for a few weeks. Or will your teenage daughter learn to make jewelry better than anything she can buy at the mall? Explore this catalog with offerings of approximately 60 classes.

While plenty of these classes are beginner-level, a few ask for some prior experience.

Above is a photo taken this winter of teacher Sarah Hart. She’s working on a copy of the Gallery’s Rembrandt painting, Portrait of a Young Man in an Armchair (ca. 1660). We hope to display the finished copy in an exhibit of artistic processes in our Lucy Burne Gallery. Also visit the Burne Gallery to see our annual Faculty show starting in the month of August and when you visit the Workshop during this year’s Clothesline Festival (September 6 and 7).

Our next brochure of classes, for fall, will be out in time for Clothesline, with classes starting in mid September.

CLAY PLAYFor ages 4–630975 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by Amy O’Connor]30976 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by Amy O’Connor]30977 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Tom Carpenter]30978 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by Tom Carpenter]

A hunk of clay can be pinched, rolled, shmushed or pushed... Clay Play is just that—a fun place to explore what clay can do. We limit enrollment of this class so that one very creative teacher and one friendly volunteer can keep the class enjoying making clay animals, trees, totems, frames, cityscapes, pinch pots, and you-name-its. When the course is over, you’ll take home a big bag of your child’s special things all fired, glazed or painted and ready to adorn a shelf and remind you of your little one’s creativity.

Fee: $160 (members $145)

DRAW, PAINT AND CREATE: ExPLORING TWO DIMENSIONSFor ages 4–630979 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by Carol Kase] 30980 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by Matt Crane]30981 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Heather Garrand]30982 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by Carol Kase]

This class is a treat for kids who like to create, draw, dream, and make magic things. For the paint-covered 4-year-old who loves every color, and the glue-happy 6-year-old listening as you read this, we welcome you to your own ‘real’ and really fun art studio. In our cheery studio with a warm, skilled teacher, your child will gain confidence draw-ing, painting and creating. This class is often on the go, tak-ing walking trips to see a real suit of armor from long ago (on view in the Gallery), or to see a horse made of bronze sticks (on the front lawn). Sign up your child and treasure the creations.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

Kid’s morning classes meet from 9:30 to 11:30 Monday through Friday.

CLAY CREATIONSFor ages 7–930983 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by Rose Van Tyne]30984 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by Rose Van Tyne]30985 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Maggie Scheid]30986 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by Linda Delmonte]

Most kids don’t know they love clay until they try; this class is about trying. Clay is coiled into big vases, formed into tall creatures, made into projects your child extends and elaborates based on his interests. Kids learn how clay works as they learn more and more techniques to build decorative and functional items. All projects are fired in our kilns and returned by the end of the last class.

Fee: $160 (members $145)

ART STuDIOFor ages 7–9 30987 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by Staff]30988 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by McNevin Hayes]30989 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Julie Flisnik]30990 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by McNevin Hayes]

Draw, paint, make elaborate collages, all with the help of an encouraging artist teacher. Art Studio is a series of fun projects starting with drawing essentials and building into new directions each day. Frequent trips to the Gallery provide inspiration and add to your young artist’s knowledge of how to make decisions in their own works of art.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

DRAWING SKILLS for ages 8–12 30991 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by John Kastner]30992 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by John Kastner]

Drawing is a learnable skill, a basic language for art. Even if your child is already speaking the language, an understand-ing of some basic drawing habits, foundations, and tech-niques will help her figure out creating form, making faces look more like faces, and understanding how to draw one thing in front of another. Our beginning drawing class is perfect for kids who want their drawings to look more real. Also, this class will teach a child who claims he “can’t draw” that yes, he can.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

CARTOON DRAWINGFor ages 9–1230993 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by John Kastner]30994 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by John Kastner]

Cartooning kids look and act just like normal kids but they are funnier, they tell elaborate stories, they like to draw, and they have special powers. This class is perfect for young car-toonists: the teacher, a professional cartoonist and illustra-tor, sets up a cartooning studio and helps each student establish their own character, story, and the best way to make their inventions happen. Even if you don’t know if your child is a budding cartoonist, sign her up and enjoy giggling at the things she draws. To encourage concentra-tion and creativity, the teacher often plays the guitar while students draw.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

MANGA AND MOREFor ages 11–teen30995 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Warren Mianecke]

What is Manga? Don’t worry if you can’t quite answer that question, your son or daughter probably can. All sorts of kids read and draw Manga stories—a Japanese style of comic book illustration loved by teens worldwide. The class is a relaxed and productive Manga studio where principles of Asian art, drawing essentials, and the tricks to telling a good story are taught. ultimately, class members produce Manga drawings that will impress even those unfamiliar with this phenomenon.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

HANDBuILT CLAY FuNCTION AND FORMFor ages 10–1330996 Session 1: July 7–18 [taught by Jessica Furber] 30998 Session 3: August 4–15 [taught by Paul Harp]

Slip, score, pinch, coil, slab, extrude and create increasingly more elaborate handbuilt clay works. A variety of sculptur-al and functional projects give students a chance to be cre-ative as they learn the same techniques professional crafts-men use. All clay is provided and all work is fired (some to a glaze finish, others to be painted.) At the teacher’s discre-tion, students may work on the potter’s wheel.

Fee: $160 (members $145)

2BEGINNING ON THE POTTER’S WHEELFor ages 10–1330997 Session 2: July 21–August 1 [taught by Jessica Furber] 30999 Session 4: August 18–29 [taught by Paul Harp]

This class is a great introduction to pottery made on the wheel. As you learn to control the speed, your own posture, and concentration on a spinning potter’s wheel, you will make work of increasing sophistication. Some handbuilt projects may be included. We recommend prior clay experience before you take this class.

Fee: $160 (members $145)

REGISTRATION STARTS APRIL 16—SESSION STARTS JuLY 7

Drawing Over the summer our classes are shorter in duration than other sessions. Materials are available in kits or in supply lists, but as a rule they are not provided for teen and adult courses.

We are often asked the differences between our drawing teachers. All are wonderful and committed to patiently and strategically teaching anyone to draw. Gina’s instruc-tion style is energetic; Marilyn is empathetic; Sarah often uses the sight-size method. All will encourage you to practice, practice, and practice some more.

This may be the summer you broaden your world by learning to draw.

BEGINNING DRAWING31005 Six Mondays, 1:30–4:30 pm, July 7–August 11 [taught by Marilyn Feinberg]or 31006 Six Mondays, 6:30–9:30 pm, July 7–August 11 [taught by Gina Zanolli]or31007 Six Wednesdays, 1:30–4:30 pm, July 9–August 13 [taught by Gina Zanolli]or31008 Six Wednesdays, 6:30–9:30 pm, July 9–August 13 [taught by Gina Zanolli]

Drawing is a learnable skill; with guidance and practice we believe anyone can draw. Our patient instructors will dem-onstrate and explain the basics of seeing, composing, building form, understanding proportion, using perspec-tive, working with value and other important lessons in the language of drawing. Be surrounded by new friends drawing still lives, self-portraits and spaces. At the end of this class, you’ll be drawing much more comfortably, with more concentration and better results.

Fee: $150 (members $135)

FIGuRE DRAWING31009 Six Tuesdays 6:30–9:30 pm, July 8–August 12 [taught by Gina Zanolli]

If you want to draw better, see more and do as artists have always done—draw from the live model. A nude model will provide short and then gradually longer poses as the teacher strikes a good balance between instructing and encouraging. You will learn to see more carefully, allowing you to draw more accurately and expressively. The result is that you will perform the amazing and satisfying feat of rendering a human form on a sheet of paper.

Fee: $170 (members $150) includes model fee.
