A summer art camp for teens will be held at the Jaffrey Civic Center the week of July 11.
The class will be taught by Anna Fairbanks, head of the Art Department at Conant High School. Students will explore various processes in the art world and will be exposed to different styles of drawing using two-dimensional materials. A series of studio problems will provide direct experience with the tools and materials employed to produce drawings. Instruction and assigned work will emphasize skill-building in observational drawing and engagement with two-dimensional design, principles and visual communication.
Students also will explore 3-D design as well, weather permitting.
This art course will act as a flexible guideline as to what the students will participate in. This is a summer art camp geared towards meeting the request and interest of the students. This camp is open to any student looking for an opportunity to be in an artistic environment over the summer.
Any students taking A.P Art are welcome to bring their art work for informal evaluation.
The class will be held on July 11-15 from 1 to 5 p.m. in the upstairs art classroom.
The fee is $99 and includes all materials.
Space is limited and beginning to fill up. To register, contact the center at 352-6527 or info@jaffreyciviccenter.com.
