3)  Winter Art Classes

Dear Parents, Students, and friends,

Now that the holidays are over, I wanted to remind all of you that art classes are starting very soon! If you are interested I hope to hear from you! I am praying that our winter is milder than last year's was. I have allowed an extra week in case we need to make up snow days. This printmaking class is so much fun! I am extending the pay early to January 6th for the Plymouth and Trinity Classes. Since the Hobby Lobby class begins this coming Thursday, the 8th, the cutoff for early discount will be getting your registration in the mail by January 3rd (Saturday).

Gloria Seitz, Art Instructor

New Creations Offers 2015 Winter Art Classes in the Michiana Area for Students in Grades 1-12. Adults and home schoolers welcome!

Gloria Seitz, a certified K-12 art teacher, will be teaching classes on the topic of PRESSING INTO PRINTMAKING.

In this seven week class, students will be learning the history and process of printing. Many types of printing will be explored. Depending on the age group, some of the processes we will be exploring include thumb, vegetable, butterfly, string, block, stamp, blot, Gyotaku, marbleized, eraser, and solar prints.
