CLASSES + WORKSHOPS FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN

The GUILFORD ART CENTER School offers year-round classes and workshop for adults and children at all levels — for those simply wanting to explore something new to those looking to further develop existing skills. Weekly classes are offered at our on-site facilities in blacksmithing, ceramics, drawing, fiber and metal work, painting, printmaking, photography, and more. Weekend workshops provide opportunities for more intensive study in specific art areas. Under the individualized guidance of our distinguished faculty of art educators as well as visiting artists, students explore and experience the joy of creativity and the satisfaction that comes with personal skill development. The process of nurturing creativity begins at the School with its popular Youth Program of classes and activities especially designed to suit and engage younger students. The School often collaborates with area schools, civic groups, scout troops, and others to offer demonstrations, curriculum enhancements, and cultural exchanges. Student financial aid is available, according to need, and all Center members receive a discount on School tuition.
