Drawing Mixed Media through Weston Youth Services/WOW (Grades K - 2) Drawing classes teach children to draw what they see, to enhance their drawings with their own ideas and concepts, and to use different materials in creative ways. The class environment is non-competitive, creative, and fun. This program helps students build their self-esteem through their drawing success and enhances hand eye coordination as well as spatial and color relationships. Special holidays and events are considered for project ideas. Multicultural arts and techniques are taught; educating students in history, geography, and storytelling as well. Drawing projects may include collage, mask making, still life, animals, scenery, people, portrait, or architecture.
NOTE: Students may take multiple sessions from year to year and will not repeat projects. Note: If your child cannot attend the Monday program, we also offer a Friday class!
Day/Dates: Mondays September 18 - December 4 (no class 9/25, 10/9 and 11/6) Time: 3:15 pm – 4:15 pm
Fees: $225.00 **All materials are included in the program fee.**
