Class Dates: July 27-31, 2020
Hello!
Welcome to this 5-lesson online class! Kids Art Week is something we do every year, and we LOVE it. This year we’ve asked five art teachers from our community to lend a hand and share their favorite lessons; our guest teachers this year are Kimberly Moore, Louis Allard, Libya Doman, Erika Couey and Jen Foshee!
There is a private Facebook group to (optionally) share your work and the opportunity for feedback from the instructor and our vibrant creative community. Click here to ask to join:

You will receive an email each lesson day reminding you that your lesson is up and available right here.
Thank you again for your signup!
