Workshops
Each year, participants take part in a series of art workshops. Each one focuses on a different art technique, creating opportunities to learn about different ways of self-expression. Topics have included clay, expressing emotion through color, outdoor oil painting, collage, Native American culture and drumstick making, wood sculptures and more.
Sessions are led by local artists and our Project Coordinator, with University of Idaho students providing a helping hand.
Thank you to the University of Idaho ARTS Grant for funding this year's projects.
