Mixed-Media Drawing
Youth Summer Camp | Registration opens 1/22/2025 9:00 AM EST
"Mixed-media" refers to any art making process that involves more than one art supply. In this fun and experimental drawing class, you will make creative drawings of a variety of subjects using traditional media like pencils, crayons, and markers, but also using unconventional tools like sticks, leaves, string, and more! During each class session we will have fun drawing prompts to get you warmed up to make art, and will then work on longer term larger scale art projects.
