Our Teaching Artists
The wonderful world of art starts with our outstanding Teaching Artists, many award winning and some nationally recognized in their specialized field. We are an art collective with a community of artists, many running his/her own classes. This allows our teaching artists to grow in their field and continue to work in the art community. Please contact the artists directly for class information and to sign-up.
