Students in East Central University's Art for Secondary Teachers class and the Ada Arts and Heritage Center will present a series of free art classes for elementary students each Wednesday in April.
The classes, titled All About Art, will be held from 4 to 4:50 p.m. each Wednesday from April 2 through April 30 at the Ada Arts and Heritage Center. They are designed for children between the ages of 5 and 12 as part of project SOAP (Student Outreach Art Project).
The classes explore a wide variety of art by exploring media. Projects will include paper craft, printmaking, tie-dying and other media. Â
The motto of project SOAP is "Art dirties your hands and cleanses your spirit," said Dr. Bradley Jessop, chair of the Art Department. All classes and materials are free, but a donation to cover the expense of materials is welcomed.
For more information, contact the Ada Arts and Heritage Center at 332-7302 or Dr. Bradley Jessop at 559-5355.
