Hi to all,
Hope this info comes to you in time, as you plan your fall
and school activities. If you are like me you are still trying to eek out every
bit of summer you can.
Please review this
information carefully as each age group will be slightly different.
You will notice that there is no specific spot for 6 year
olds. They will be placed in to either the 3-5 year old class or the 7 and ups.
I like to base this on both cognitive, and fine motor skills, so the decision is made on an individual
bases, with the parents.
All the art classes will have a general art theme working
across the spectrum of drawing, painting, sculpture and mixed media. The
projects and assignments will be different though for each age level with the
13 and up being high school level. I would also like to do some digital
photography which requires a little more work on parents parts to get photo’s
produced each week. We will discuss this once the class is set to see how
participating parents feel about it.
All classes will be on going. I am just asking that you
commit to a whole session. Classes will meet once a week with homework to do in
between. Class fee can be paid each week, there will be a small fee at
beginning of each session for materials. (See individual class)
Session One - Begins the week of Sept 7, 2014 and ends the
week before Thanksgiving. ( it’s
about 11 weeks)
Session Two – Begins the week of January 5, 2015 and ends the
week of May 11, with 2 weeks off (to be determined) for spring break.
(approximately 12 weeks.)
I will be in the YMCA in Neguanee on Tuesdays from 4:30-6
doing the Intro to Drawing and Color Theory. All other classes will be held in
my home.
3-5 year olds. Limit 6 students. I am looking at 2:00 – 3:00
Wednesdays, or similar time on Wednesday afternoons. Give me your feedback
about the time. Class fee will be
$10.00 a week includes all materials and supplies. No material fee upfront.
7-12 year olds. Limit 8-10 students. Thursday 12:30 – 2:00
and also 4:30 – 6. I am offering 2 time slots for this age group as I want to
offer an after school time slot but also accommodate home schooler’s who want
to be done during the day. Class fee each week is $7.00 with a $20.00 material
fee for Session One also due the first week of class.
13-and up. Limit 8-10 students High school level. Each
session will give you a ½ credit toward a Visual art credit for highschool if
you want the full credit you will need to attend both sessions and complete all
assignments. Thursdays 2:30 -4:00. This class will focus on both the building
of skill, creative problem solving and individual expression and design. Class
fee is $7.00 a week with a $25.00 material fee for Session One also due the
first week of class.
For those of you, who have taken classes with me in my home
before, please notice the change of email address. I will be sending this
initial email out from both the new and old emails so I make sure you get it in
your inbox.
I’m sure there will be more info as we go, but this will give
most of you a good idea of what this year will look like.
Thanks
