Our community art engagement programming is focused on our mission to make art accessible. We want our school to be diverse and inclusive so we’ve developed opportunities for arts engagement which encourage broad participation. The free, by donation, and sliding scale spots in our workshops, drop-in and longer format classes make it easy for people to try something for the first time or develop a lasting connection.
Here are some of the community programs we have been offering.
