Tuesdays evenings once a month adults can sign up for these workshops to learn specialized art techniques and gain insight into artists’ processes through making and experimenting. These workshops are free to attend, but space is limited so registration required to allow instructors time to prepare materials. To view project examples and artists’ works please visit the local artist display area in the Family & Community Space.
