Each week teens will explore a new artistic style from Realism and Pop Art to Manga, Surrealism, and Mixed Media. Build skills in drawing, painting, color, composition, character design, and more, then use your favorite techniques to create an original final piece.

Teens will strengthen their skills while developing confidence in their own creative voice.

Led by teaching artist Nadia Dyer of Isomimo, teens will receive supportive instruction and plenty of encouragement to experiment and make each project their own.
