TRY-IT CLASSES – ADULTS

A selection of one or two time short workshops for adults and kids, too!! We offer a quick exposure to various fine arts and hand crafts without your having to commit to a full semester of classes. A great opportunity to hone skills or learn something totally new! Bring a friend, bring your book club, even bring your spouse!

Textiles: Batik & Silk Painting

Join us for a very fun workshop, first focusing on the techniques and dyes used to make your hand-painted silk scarf. Then you will move on to designing a unique pattern to create a traditional batik piece.

While we work on these projects, you’ll hear about the history and use of these textiles. This is a very hands-on class, so wear old clothes!

Starting Wednesday, October 2 (5 Weeks)

10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

$155 [with materials]

Bruce and Joanne at the Art Spot are the absolute best and a true treasure to us! They have nurtured and encouraged my artsy kid for the past 10 years - so much so that said kid refers to them as "my Art Parents" :-)

My 6yo daughter loves her time at the Art Spot. She can be a bit particular about her activities, but she loves everything from the content of the class to (and especially) her instructor Joanne. The Fine Arts Frolics program is amazing and has really helped my daughter develop her art skills and confidence. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a program for young artists in the area!

The art classes are so much fun - what a satisfying feeling it is to finish a project and see the results. Joanne and Bruce tag team it, bringing their trained eyes, creativity, and know-how to each student from start to finish.

My son has had the opportunity to experience various mediums in their classes. Joanne and Bruce are exceptional teachers who go above and beyond to help their students reach their full potential as artists. My son got to experience being part of a public art project in Danbury, and had a piece in a local kid's art show organized by the school. He can't wait to attend again this fall.

Both of my kids have truly enjoyed their time with the talented owners, Joanne & Bruce for after school art lessons. Small group sizes with personal attention means they are learning a lot each class and come home with art pieces they are proud to show off. So many different styles - we will definitely be trying more of their offerings in the future!
