CLASS FULL!

INTRO TO CONTEMPORARY ART (Ages 9–12)


Instructor: Kendall Chandler
Uncover the themes, techniques, and materials exhibited in the galleries at Virginia MOCA, and discover the *why* behind the creation of contemporary art. Immerse yourself in the professional practices of a contemporary artist to conceptualize, workshop, and implement ideas through 2D and 3D art. Perform visual research in a handmade sketchbook, photograph objects with a digital microscope, and learn techniques in printing and casting. This experience gives students the tools to build a necessary foundational skillset to develop portfolio-ready, relevant, and meaningful artwork.

Scholarships are available for this class:

Thanks to The Cohen Memorial Fund at Virginia MOCA, a number of scholarships are offered for children and teens to participate in art education. Everyone deserves to express their creativity. Through these scholarships we hope to provide an understanding and appreciation of the arts to those who might not otherwise be financially able to participate, and to recognize and encourage artistically gifted individuals.
