We have been providing visual arts classes to students of all skill levels and experience for over 50 years. CAC has become a top adult art education destinations within the North Texas area serving a range of students from teenagers to senior citizens and beginning to emerging artists.
Last year 1,500 students took more than 500 classes and workshops at CAC in ceramics, clay sculpture, drawing, fiber, fused glass, jewelry, metal sculpture, mixed media, mosaic, painting, printmaking and stone sculpture.
The majority of our teaching artists hold a Bachelor or Master of Fine Arts and have exhibited widely.
This class is fantastic for kids for so many reasons. Developmentally, working in clay assists hand-eye coordination. Give a kid a lump of clay and their brain slows down to allow inspiration to manifest.
This class is for those with no clay experience who would like to learn some of the possibilities inherent in the ceramics arena.
Come explore the world of 3D art with us! Students will experience sculpting with wood, clay, recycled materials, plaster, and more!
We will be modeling clay figures from a live model. All poses will be standing. There will be six successive poses: six: three one week poses, two two week poses, and one three week pose. You will need an armature to do a standing figure.
Designed for students new to the medium, this course will provide the beginner with a strong foundation in the cross-cultural and historical importance, contemporary practice, and techniques in ceramics from simple hand-built forms to basic forms thrown on the wheel.
