Step into the world of art history! In this class, kids explore a new artist or art movement each session, learning what made each style unique. After a short, engaging look at a specific artist and their techniques, students dive into their own acrylic or tempera painting inspired by that era. By the end of the session, kids will have built a personal collection of original works while gaining a hands-on understanding of some of art history's biggest movements.
