TEEN ART STUDIO
A relaxed weekend art studio for teens—where you can explore new materials, make friends, and grow as an artist.
Teen Art Studio (TAS) is a relaxed, drop-in art program for ages 13–18. Explore painting, sculpture, mixed media, and more with guidance from teaching artist Shana Bazelmans. Try new materials, develop your ideas, meet other young artists, and have fun making art—no experience necessary.
Second Saturdays, 10:30am–1:30pm
$10 materials fee. Scholarships available.
All materials and mural admission included.
Drop-ins welcome, but registering helps us plan ahead.
