This two-part course will cover an introduction to the medium, instruction about value and color, and exploration of textures. Students should be able to attend both sessions.

  • Session 1 (May 24) Introduction to pastels, pastel papers, safety concerns and simple techniques. Students will use these foundations to create thumbnail sketches and value studies to begin a painting.
  • Session 2 (June 7) Dive into color! Students will learn the difference between local color and expressive color. We will also explore creating texture with pastels. In the afternoon students will work on a larger final project. We will discuss fixing techniques and framing tips unique to pastels

Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice – August 22 – 31

TAMWORTH, NH – Bold, surprising, boisterous, and timely, this P&P for a new era explores the absurdities and thrills of finding your perfect (or imperfect) match in life. The outspoken Lizzy Bennet is determined to never marry, despite mounting pressure from society. But can she resist love, especially when that vaguely handsome, mildly amusing, and impossibly aggravating Mr. Darcy keeps popping up at every turn?! Literature’s greatest tale of latent love has never felt so theatrical, or so full of life than it does in this effervescent adaptation. Because what turns us into greater fools…than the high-stakes game of love? This adaptation is incredibly fresh, and well-suited to audiences of all ages. It moves fast, and is sure to be a crowd pleaser. G Rating
