Join artist, Courtney McNamara, for ART ATTACK, a weekly get together to create art of all kinds, socialize and make new friends. Starting May 4, the group will meet from 10-noon on Thursdays at The Art Center. The cost to attend is $10 which includes all materials unless noted otherwise. A discounted cost is available when you register for the entire month. Attendance every week is not required. While you're there, you can enjoy some hot drinks from The Butler Coffee Lab's selection of unique and delicious coffees, teas, and lemonades. You will be pleasantly surprised!

Watercolor exists as a most primitive of expressive art forms. Participants in this class will use color in its hue, intensity, and value to experience the process of representing what they see onto a 2 dimensional plane. Color mixing and application techniques will also be explored.

Consider joining us for our portrait group that meets every Wednesday from 12:30-2:00. Each week there is a live model and it's only $2 to join. No need to sign up ahead of time! Walk ins are welcome!
