Youth Art Classes Offered posted 6/6/07

ADRIAN, Mich. – Adrian College, in conjunction with the YMCA of Lenawee County and the LCVA (Lenawee Council for Visual Arts), will host a youth art program this summer titled “Walk Like An Egyptian.” Students will study the art and culture of the land of the ancient pharaohs using clay, papier mache, drawing, painting, carving and jewelry.

Classes are scheduled for the week of July 16-20. Sessions for grades 1-4 will run 9 a.m. until noon each morning. Grades 5-8 will run 1-4 p.m. each afternoon.

Classes will take place in a big tent adjacent to Mahan Hall at Adrian College. Mahan is located between Shipman Library and the new Caine Student Center on Williams Street. The instructors will be Jackie Whiteley and Annie Morton, with assistance from Adrian College art education students.

The cost of the program is $65 per student and includes all supplies. Due to generous contributions from Wacker Chemical Corporation, scholarships are available to students who qualify for their school’s free lunch program.

Registration is through the YMCA of Lenawee County, in person or by mail. For additional information, contact Jean Lash, art education coordinator, at 517-270-2745.
