Chesterton Art Center Fall Classes Are Open for Registration!

Chesterton Art Center’s (CAC) fall classes for both youth and adult students are now open for registration. In addition to our popular standard classes, we are excited to share some news related to our studio art education programs! Over the summer, CAC acquired a printmaking press, and with the help of some dedicated volunteers, we successfully installed the press in our upstairs classroom.

The addition of the printmaking press will make it possible for CAC to build a more robust printmaking program. This fall, students can sign up for “Exploring Monotype + Relief Printmaking,” August 13–September 3, from 1:30 to 3:30 PM, and “Drypoint Intaglio Printmaking Workshop,” September 17 and 24, from 5:30–7:30 PM.

More information about these and all other adult classes can be found at ChestertonArt.org/adult-classes-and-workshops! Following a packed Youth + Teen Summer Programming schedule of Youth Art Camps and Teen Studio Intensives, our normal youth programming schedule resumes in September with After School Art classes and one-session opportunities, such as workshops and Preschool Pop-Ins.

After School Art classes are offered every month from September–May for ages 5–18. Each four-session class is designed to teach students valuable artmaking skills, in a safe and supportive environment that emphasizes creative play. Because each monthly class focuses on a different theme with new projects, families are welcome to register for one or several classes throughout the programming year!

Classes through November are already listed and open for registration. For more information and to register, visit ChestertonArt.org/youth-and-teen-classes! Finally, we are thrilled to announce the launch of ArtsConnect, a new series of classes for adults ages 60 and over. ArtsConnect classes are scheduled during the daytime, are offered at a lower tuition, and include all supplies. ‘
