Junior Teens Exploring Art Class:
in-person class
on-going term class
no prerequisite to join this class other than wanting to make art!
Within a calendar year activities will include drawing, mixed media, painting, and construction. Core basics of composition, drawing and colour mixing are covered. The design process is inherent in activities. Drawing is a core study and the design process (creative problem solving) is inherent in all activities.
We are aware that students will have different art experiences prior to joining the class. Therefore we aim to accommodate the beginners as well as to extend the more advanced. A variety of teaching styles are employed. Some activities are more tutor-directed which others are designed for student extension.
Please view our Covid Safe Plan.

The focus is on drawing, painting, and mixed media. There is built-in flexibility with the program and approach. Each term a program outline is distributed as a guide for the term but is often adapted as the term progresses.
The approach is to revisit and extend skills, concepts, and techniques through, demonstrations, discussions, experimentation, and application. Advanced students often work on their own projects in consultation with the tutor. We refer to this as the Studio Option.
Emphasis will be on 2 dimensional Art Forms “Studio” refers to a mentoring approach. It does not mean that the tutor will conduct individual classes for “Studio” students. Only on days programmed as “Studio”, tutors will prioritize mentoring of individual activities. On other days, tutors will endeavour to assist as much as possible, but tutored activities will take priority.
This class runs concurrently with the Teens Building Basics Class. An advantage of this format is that some students who have missed out on some areas of basics can choose to join the Beginners Group for a term.
