ALL LEVELS: All students from beginner to advanced are welcome. The teaching artist provides balanced and responsive instruction suitable for participants at any experience level.
BEGINNING 1: Students have little to no experience with the medium and would like step-by-step instruction throughout class. Teaching artists will cover the basics of the medium.
BEGINNING 2: Students have some experience, having taken at least one class in this medium. Teaching artists will provide guidance during class, and students will continue to learn the foundations of the medium.
INTERMEDIATE: Students are comfortable with the medium. They will receive some guidance from the teaching artist, as well as time to work on their own.
ADVANCED: Students have taken multiple classes in the medium and are confident in their abilities. Students are self-motivated and interested in developing their artistic voice.
