Saturday Art Classes
CCAD's popular Saturday Art Classes offer immersive, skill-building experiences in art & design for kids, teens, and adults in a studio setting.
Offered each spring and fall, these classes run concurrently with the college semester, providing an opportunity to explore a variety of creative mediums. Led by local artists and educators, our courses feature hands-on projects that are as unique as you and your students' interests! Participants can choose from traditional fine arts like Drawing and Painting, or dive into specialized areas such as Animation, Game Art, and more.
With morning and afternoon options, plus classes ranging from three, five, or ten weeks long, there’s sure to be something that fits your unique schedule. Each ten-week-long session culminates in a student exhibition, showcasing artworks from all ages and mediums in one exciting space.
