2017 Winter Classes and Workshops at The Center for Contemporary Art

BEDMINSTER, N.J. - Jan. 4, 2017 - PRLog -- The Center for Contemporary Art is excited to announce its winter schedule of art classes and workshops which begins January 9th and runs through March. There are over thirty-five classes and workshops for adults and over fifteen classes for children ages five through teens. Classes are offered for artists with all levels of expertise in a variety of media including oil and acrylic paint, pastel, gouache, watercolor, drawing, photography, and ceramics.

This winter The Center is offering two new classes. The "iPad Drawing" class for adults with Dan Fenelon, demonstrates the many ways drawing and sketching can be done on an iPad. "Scratchboard Drawing" class for adults with Najwan Zoubi is a great way to learn the importance of highlights in an artwork forcing artists to think in reverse to pull the image to the surface. Winter art workshops provide special one-day opportunities for local artists.

The Center's unique curriculum of children's art classes allows young artists to enroll in either overview classes that explore a broad range of media and techniques, or in-depth classes designed to deepen and develop skills in a single medium. A class for homeschooled children is offered on Fridays beginning January 20^th. The class celebrates the creativity of children while establishing a foundational understanding of the elements and principles of art and design. Additionally, classes are offered Monday evenings for children with ASD and other special needs beginning January 23rd.
