Our hands-on art classes are taught by artist-teachers, and frequently inspired by art on view in the museum. Since 1949 we have been teaching, inspiring, challenging, and encouraging all ages. We love to help you make the artwork you never thought you could make.
Spring Creative Workshop classes are available online! Members receive 10% off classes and special access to early registration. Full course descriptions are posted online in the CW Class Calendar. Art classes will begin on April 26.
SOCIAL DISTANCING POLICY

Introducing fun and free Little Lessons for kids (and kids-at-heart). Inspired by artwork all around the world, Eddie Davis, III makes an Etruscan Warrior from twisty ties, recycled paper, tape, and glue. Ben Leyer shows how to create an original cartoon character after looking at ancient Chinese ceramics and African Chi Wara sculptures. Perhaps you love abstract dripping, splashing, and pouring paintings but would rather keep your house clean? Amy J. Fisher shows how to make action painting for cooped up kiddos. Do you like to sketch? Would you like to sketch? Tamia Alston-Ward shows you how to sketch, blend, and emphasize colors in her drawings of Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, and Fritz Trautmann. And finally, for lots of fun, check out Faith Gruver’s video where she shows little kids lots of ways to make painted and printed inspired foolproof artwork.
If you like these try considering a class.
All of these art projects give you the steps and encouragement create with us from the comfort of your own home. Be sure to share your art and tag it using the hashtag #alittlelesson so we can post your creations on our social media!
