REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR AGNJ’S SPRING ART CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

Registration is now open for spring art classes for adults, teens (ages 12-16), and children (ages 7–11) at Arts Guild New Jersey. Spring classes begin the week of April 1, 2013, including several exciting new options, in addition to many familiar favorites. Classes meet once a week for eight weeks. Whether students are challenging themselves by taking their skills to the next level, or trying a new technique for the first time, there is something for everyone at Arts Guild New Jersey.


Adult classes, with both morning and evening options, include diverse and multi-level offerings in drawing, painting (oils, acrylics, and watercolor), and stained glass. Teen and kids classes meet after school or on Saturdays. Teen classes include drawing and Anime/Manga; and for kids, sculpture, drawing, and cartooning.


Three one-day Saturday workshops for adults are offered April 27, 2013. The workshops provide the opportunity to work with an artist in an exploration of: “Creating Unique Surfaces with Graphite, Colored Pencils, and Ink Wash on Canvas”, “The Art of Artist Books”, and “On the Road: Painting Outdoors in Nature”.
