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.
We would like to thank Stepping Stones, Inc for funding this year's workshops. Without your generosity, artAbility would not be possible.

Sofia Bronaugh will be the Project Coordinator for the artAbility project this year. She joined the CDHD as a trainee last fall. Last year she was acting as a peer mentor for our Vandal QUEST program, or you may recognize her from Movement in the Park. She joined Isabella and Emily over the summer as a student instructor.
Sofia is originally from San Diego, California, but has come to the University of Idaho to study secondary education. She's looking forward to getting to know the artAbility community and seeing everyone express themselves through all the different art they'll be making this year. She's excited for everyone to try some of the mediums she has planned!
You can email Sofia (sbronaugh@uidaho.edu) for information on the workshops or any other artAbility questions.
