ART CALL! Our next curated show will showcase the beauty, innovation, and craftsmanship of glass as an artistic medium. From traditional techniques to contemporary explorations, this exhibition celebrates the transformative power of glass in all its forms. Whether functional, decorative, or somewhere in between, the glass arts offer inherent luminosity and reflections few other mediums can offer.

All artists, 2D and 3D (sculptural) are welcome to submit work. The show will run September - November, with an opening reception on September 5th during Art After Dark. We welcome artists from all over Texas and beyond to show in our gallery. Deadline is August 20th.

Learn the basics of spray paint art with artist, Curtis Griffin. Each student will use a 4×4′ panel of plywood and stand to create a simple image of a flower, bird, or other shapes, brought to life in colors of your choosing.

You can bring your piece home with you at the end of class or arrange for a pickup time with the Art Center office. No artistic experience is needed, as images can be as simple or complex as you like. Example images will be provided, or you can create your own! Curtis will guide students on form and application techniques.

Liven up your patio, studio, or any space with your own original work. Supply fee is included in the cost. We will also provide masks and gloves for optional use. Class will be held outdoors, weather permitting. Credits will transfer if class is rescheduled due to weather.

Credits and refunds are issued only for class cancellations and postponements.
Ages 12+ are welcome.
