Drawing for Teens (Spring) - Berkeley, CA 2025

Dates: Mar 18- May 20, 2025 Tuesdays, 4-5:30 PM During this 9-week course, participants will focus on drawing as a form of design and imagination. Teens will learn how to use drawing skills to draw things that they cannot see or observe in the world around them, but rather that come from their own imaginations and ideas. Students will practice prompts and assignments that encourage them to generate new and creative ideas and learn about drawing as the most immediate way to capture an idea as it appears. All levels are welcome. Differentiated instruction is provided to meet each student’s interests, needs, and strengths. Throughout the year, participants will explore a drawing curriculum beyond the basics, focusing on drawing as a method to observe, design, and think about the world around them. Participants will have a strong arsenal of drawing tricks and techniques in their pockets and an expanded idea of the possibilities and types of drawing that exist in the world today.
