studio-4
Studio 4 is a place for young artists to experience painting and drawing in a studio setting. Brainstorming techniques will be used to create themes and compositions. The young artist will learn how to use their imagination in a group dynamic - as well as individually - and will create art at their own pace, enjoying the atmosphere of an artists’ studio. Drawings will be made and color techniques applied to sketches. A free flowing, aggressive painting style will be encouraged to promote confident brushwork, and to overcome the fear of making mistakes. Other mediums will be explored, such as collage and texture techniques.

Studio 4 the Young Artist is a fun way to experience and introduce different ways to create art in a relaxing, happy, studio atmosphere. At the end of the session, we will hold a gallery show for all students to showcase art they created.

Theater and Community: Helping Others through Theater Arts (for Grades 1-8)

Class runs 9/24-10/29 (the last meeting is the performance date).

This fun and creative class will start off with a small introduction to theater to gain a basic knowledge of this medium we will be working in. Working together as a team, this class will create a completely original work - utilizing the basics of theater - to be performed before an audience. Ideally, this will be an audience that might not ordinarily get the chance to go see live theater - such as a Nursing Home, Veterans’ Medical Center, or center for patients with Alzheimer’s, to name a few (last session’s performance was at the Royer-Greaves School for Blind). This course is a great opportunity for students to experience the power of using the arts to help others, while learning the basics of theater and utilizing their arts-related talents. No previous theatrical or performance experience necessary.

MUSIC LESSONS OFFERED:

If you have not had success with music lessons in the past, or might be intimidated by the prospect of learning a new skill, you will want to try taking lessons with us here at The Center on Central. Our teachers work with your learning style and utilize creative techniques to ensure successful musical experiences.

While acknowledging that there is a basic curriculum necessary for musical knowledge and growth, we make sure to provide literature and instruction that is age-appropriate. Students learn the instrument of their choice, but also have the option to use their theory and skills on xylophones, drums and other rhythm instruments we have in our studio. Many students learn chord progressions in a relatively short span of time, and are playing entire songs and even writing songs within a month.

We offer piano lessons to children starting at age 4 ½, guitar lessons beginning at age 7, voice lessons beginning at age 10 – and continuing into adulthood - and have instructors available for other instruments based on your inquiry and a brief telephone interview.
