Young artists are invited to join art instructor, Ms. Ellen Duke Wilson this summer to explore fine arts through St. Clement’s Island Museum Art Kids classes. Young artists will expand their understanding of art and history while learning to sketch, paint, and sculpt. Students will also reflect on how making art can impact society in positive ways for future generations.
At the end of each session, all participants create an individualized work of art to share with their family and community. These classes are geared towards children ages 7 to 17.
Preregistration is required and the cost is $5 per child. All materials are provided; however, participants are asked to bring a light snack. Parents are encouraged to sign up soon as slots fill up quickly.
Don’t miss the chance to participate! Last classes this summer will be held August 8 – 10, 2023.
