Please Note: Brushstrokes in-person art classes have re-started.
On-Site classes for Winter 2022 - Brushstrokes offers classes in fine-art painting Monday through Friday in watercolor and acrylic and oil. There are instruction classes and studio classes (without instructor). Artists' abilities in each class range from 'some experience' to 'advanced'.
We will follow any Covid19 guidelines from government, facility, city, and/or FLC Seniors Club and participants must be prepared to comply with any restrictions that may be in place at the time of classes. We now require all participants to be fully vaccinated and everyone must wear a mask during classes. .
We do not offer classes in craft painting such as china, wood, fabric, stone, or tole and we do not have soft pastel in our classes.
We hold two ten-week sessions: one in the Fall (September-November) and one in the Winter (January-March). The schedule of classes is in the table below. There may be an optional eight-week session in Spring (April-May).
Classes are limited in size to 10 people in order to provide room to paint and to facilitate personal attention from the instructor. Cost: $160 per 10-week session with Instructor and $75 per 10-week session for Studio (no teacher).
We also hold Art Show and Sale in the Spring which gives our members the opportunity to display and sell their art work. Dates to be determined.
