Beginning August 30, the Chesterton Art Center is offering on-site monthly kids & teens art classes taught by Jennifer Aitchison.
The 2021-2022 children's art program will move through the history of modern art movements, with discussions, observations and, of course, hands-on lessons including drawing, painting, and 2D/3D media. Every month from September to May, we will explore a new art period such as American Realism, Impressionism, Surrealism and Pop Art. Join us!
