VARIOUS LOCAL ARTISTS
Thursdays starting June 27 (no class July 4 or 18)
6 – 8:00pm | $30 | all skill levels welcome
Grab your friends, coworkers, or make it a unique date night and join different members of the Ah Haa faculty on Wednesday evenings for two hours of entertaining art instruction. You will go home with your own painting, collage or print and hopefully a new-found talent you’ll want to explore. Canvas and Cocktails is an upbeat creative class for both the artistic and not so artistic to learn the basics of acrylic painting in a social atmosphere. BYOB. Pre-registration is encouraged. Read more at Telluride Inside… and Out.
MICHELLE MONTAGUE
Thursdays starting June 27 (no class July 4 or 18)
5– 7:30pm | $30 | all skill levels welcome
Drop in to experience the meditative joy of working with clay, or come weekly to emerge with a collection of pieces with your own voice. If you are hoping to experience working on the wheel for the first time you will need to call in advance and schedule a demonstration. Students under the age of 9 are welcome if accompanied by an adult.
ROBERT WEATHERFORD
Mondays & Wednesdays | June 24 – August 28 | 9am– 1:00pm | $50 + $15 materials (This class is held at the Stone Building on Willow Street. All skill levels welcome.)
This class is for students of all levels who wish to render their internal landscapes or the movement of their spirit. The idea is for the student to be able to construct a painting both physically as well as conceptually, whether still life, landscape, abstraction, or other. Using acrylics, students will learn the aesthetic, emotional, and spatial properties of the various colors and how to use them to convey work from the soul rather than the intellect. They will be given encouragement, constructive criticism, and technical advice.
Students can bring their own materials or use the Ah Haa’s provided materials (one 29″x41″ sheet of paper and acrylic paints) for an additional $15 fee. Additional paper is $5 per sheet. Five-class punch cards are available. Groups of five or more students should contact the school in advance. Otherwise, simply show up on the day of class.
