ART CLASSES

SMALL CLASSES TO LEARN ART 

Custom Classes - Gather from 4-15 people and schedule a custom class for team building, family fun, girls' night, or a social group activity. We'll provide the supplies, space and instruction. Classes should be project based Happy Hours, no skills necessary. Students will have a fun time creating a unique, handmade treasure of painted glassware, ornaments, decoupage baskets, pet portraits, sneakers, or pour painting to name a few. 

Does your photo group want advice on matting and framing? Could your needlework group benefit from learning to mount their work like the professionals? Let a certified picture framer share techniques and knowledge catered to your group's needs. Contact Cheryl at Frame Designs Gallery for more information. 

 

Happy Hours - These classes are for non artists that want a fun social experience that will allow them to complete a project.  We encourage you to bring a beverage of your choice as well as party food to share if you wish. Most are 2 hours, some are longer, all include all of the materials needed.
