What is Open Studio?

 

The LEC’s Open Studio is a creative space that provides adults an opportunity to experiment and make art in a safe environment.  Our Open Studio will motivate you to create, try new media, and work with many inspiring and accomplished artists.  Instructor Tim Gibbons is available during the entire class time to instruct, suggest, and/or encourage students. All levels of artists are welcome.

So, whether you’re brand new to painting and drawing or a seasoned professional, you will find a block of time in Open Studio devoted to helping you produce original art.

Open Studio meets on Wednesday mornings from 9-noon and Wednesday evenings from 6-8:30 pm.  Choose a time and come create!
