(No Class: 6/19)

The desire to be inspired is the only prerequisite for this class. You don’t ever have to fear a blank page or canvas again. In this class, you’ll learn a variety of techniques for initiating new work, learning not only how to begin the conversation, but also how to continue the dialogue. The class provides an opportunity for you to free yourself from your inner critic, learn to trust your intuition, and open yourself to inspiration. Great for the novice as well as the accomplished. The class tuition includes materials; if you would like to bring your own materials, please use code MINUSMATERIALS upon registration to have this fee deducted from the tuition.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note a suitable makeup date will be selected by polling students for a majority vote. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)

Please note masks are still mandatory and required to be worn for this class at this time.

ACCESSIBILITY

Our 2D Studio is located on the main level of the building, which is accessible via a ramp from the parking lot. In addition, restrooms are located on the basement level of our building so stair use is also required.

For all classes held at Citizens’ Hall in Stockbridge, please note our historic building has narrow doorways and is not equipped with an elevator. Our bathrooms, ceramics studio, and 3D studio are accessible via stairs only. We welcome and make every effort to accommodate learners of all styles and abilities.
