Thursday Adult Art Class: Explore, Create, and Connect

In this engaging term-based art class (there is a morning group 9.30-11.30 am or an evening group 7-9 pm), you'll learn everything you need to know, whether you are a beginner or have intermediate experience. Led by seasoned fine artist and studio director, Jennifer Webb, this class offers a supportive environment where you can explore your artistic goals and receive practical feedback.

Throughout the sessions, you'll have access to ongoing learning materials that you can use to continue developing your skills at home, if that is your wish. Whether you're an intermediate creative or just starting out, these materials will help you progress on your artistic journey.

One of the unique aspects of this group class is the flexibility it offers. You're not limited to following a single academic pathway. Instead, you can plan your own curriculum based on your unique goals and plans. By taking advantage of the online studio supplementary materials and creating a personalised learning plan, you'll see your fastest results.

During the weekly class sessions, you'll have the opportunity to engage with fellow group members and receive practical feedback from your professional facilitator. These sessions are designed to enhance your learning experience and provide a space for creative exploration.

And here's the best part - while you enhance your artistic skills, you can enjoy sipping on your favourite beverage. Tea is the most common choice for these weekday groups, but feel free to bring along any beverage of your choice - many do. It's all about creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere that nurtures your creativity.

By joining this weekly class, you'll gain valuable skills and knowledge that will transform your artistry, all at your own level, with the inspiration of fellow group members as well. You'll be amazed at what you can create once you have some skills and techniques on board. So, embrace your inner artist and join us for an exciting and fulfilling artistic adventure.

Beginners are able to develop confidence and get support from the teacher, as well as the camaraderie of the group. Most beginners reach early intermediate level by the time they enter their third term.

If you wish to enroll after a term has commenced, no drama, just drop a line and we can let you know availability and cost. After all, you are designing your own individual learning pathway. You can book a term (10 weekly creative sessions) to attend in a group setting. Choose from the Morning Thursday Group booking (9.30-11.30am) or the Thursday Evening Group Booking (7-9pm).
  Art group members need a drawing kit and a painting kit. A basic drawing kit is required to refine your drawing/drafting skills for your paintings. An advanced drawing kit is for those who love drawing media and want to create finished artworks in drawing media. Lists and suppliers will be provided once you are enrolled, as well as a login to our Foundation Drawing Module.

Most participants are learning with quality acrylics, and suppliers of the best student and professional brands will be forwarded with lists of required pigments and tools.

As an optional extra, you can turn up with no materials, and we can also provide some for an extra (ad-hoc) fee to get you started and guide you in collecting the ideal selection of materials for your creative journey. Going to the art store in person or online can be an overwhelming and confusing event, with irritating or disappointing results if you don't have good knowledge before investing. With this alternative option, you can decide which is best for you and build your kit with more certainty going forward.

This class series runs over 10 consecutive sessions, at the same time every week.
