Kids 3D Mixed Media & Sculpture

Explore Art Beyond the Canvas Through Hands-On Creative Projects

Our Mixed Media & Sculpture Program is designed for young artists who love to build, experiment, get their hands messy, and explore forms of art beyond traditional drawing and painting.

Through guided weekly projects, students will work with a rotating variety of materials and techniques to explore sculpture, printmaking, dimensional art, assemblage, texture, and mixed media.

This class focuses on hand-built and mixed media processes rather than traditional pottery or wheel-thrown ceramics. Students will have the opportunity to experiment with many different ways of creating three-dimensional and tactile artwork without being limited to one material.

Throughout the course, students may explore topics such as:

• Air-Dry Clay Sculpture & Hand Building

• Wire Sculpture

• Papier-Mâché

• Cardboard & Found-Object Sculpture

• Assemblage Art

• Relief Sculpture

• Linocut & Block Printing

• Printmaking Techniques

• Plaster & Texture Techniques

• Dimensional Acrylic Painting

• Palette Knife & Heavy Texture Painting

• Collage & Mixed Media

• Paper Sculpture

• Fiber, String & Textile-Based Art

• Wood & Natural Materials

• Model Making & Construction

• Experimental Art Materials

• Recycled & Upcycled Sculpture

• & much more!

Each month introduces a new material, process, or creative focus. Students will learn how different materials behave, how artwork can be constructed in three dimensions, and how artists combine multiple mediums to turn an idea into a finished piece.

Some projects may take several weeks to complete, allowing students to plan, build, dry, paint, decorate, and refine their artwork over multiple class sessions.

Classes are paid via monthly subscription and are ongoing.

Who This Class Is For

This class is ideal for young artists who love making things with their hands and want to explore beyond traditional pencil-and-paper art.

No previous sculpture or mixed media experience is required. Students will learn techniques together while also being encouraged to make creative choices and develop their own ideas.

Whether your child loves building, sculpting, painting, crafting, experimenting with unusual materials, or simply wants to try a little bit of everything, this class gives them a space to explore.

Students leave with completed artwork, experience working with a variety of materials, and a broader understanding of just how many different ways there are to create art.
