9:00am-12:00pm

Arts on Main is excited to host FREE summer art exploration camps during the summer of 2023! Our young students will be making “Art for Art’s Sake!” Focusing on fine motor skills, tactile activities, and getting very messy, the kids will explore art through the ages starting with making cave paint and ending with modern sculpture using handmade clay.

We will offer 2 sessions of the preschool camp with the same lessons being taught during both. There will be a limited number of spots available. We will enroll students on a first come, first served basis.

To sign up, email gallerymanager@gloucesterarts.org.

Wednesday, March 29 – Friday, March 31
1:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Create your own mixed media masterpieces using those little pieces of memories too precious to throw away! Your quirky snippets, papers, jewelry, fabric, or any small odds and ends can be layered to create a charming and personal piece of art. If you want to practice without worrying about ruining a special object, extra supply packets will be available to purchase for $5 a bag so you can play with a free spirit.

You will learn how to layer paint, paper, photos, trims, fabric and more.  We will learn different types of gluing, fusing and stitching methods to build interesting layers for your pieces. We will discuss and play with mark making, color, texture and pattern, answering questions along the way. Feel free to email the instructor with any questions: theresa@stifelandcapra.com

Cost of the 3 day class is $215.00 per student.

Registration deadline is Saturday, March 25 by 5pm.

New work by Robert Schuler! “My paintings prima New work by Robert Schuler!

“My paintings primarily reflect regional splendors and rural landscapes. I especially enjoy painting Watermen and their old workboats, Skipjacks in particular.  My affinity for the watermen, their environment and their work are very inspiring to me.  I am inspired by rural old things, buildings that are crooked, Victorian homes, and old work boats with rust…they all capture my attention. I also enjoy capturing portraits of cherished homes and beloved pets in watercolor.  When showing my artwork, I like to feel the viewer’s connection to the art. Their feedback, familiarity or memories of the subject I’ve painted fill in the details for me and makes the piece even more interesting. It gives more meaning to the painting. I find great pleasure in establishing an interaction with the viewers of my work.” Medium: Acrylic, Oil, & Watercolor
