Designed for ages 4 to 17, PenArt’s children’s and teen curriculum encourages young artists to discover their sources of inspiration and express themselves in new ways. From painting to sculpture and printmaking to ceramics, our workshops foster inquisitiveness, inspire the pursuit of meaningful ideas, and promote self-expression. Housed in our dedicated youth wing, students engage in the creative process from start to finish through unique lessons developed by our summer-long instructors in collaboration with PenArt’s Artistic Director. Demonstrations, group brainstorms, field trips around the sculpture grounds, and tours of the exhibitions in the Guenzel Gallery punctuate hands-on working time. On the final day of class, young artists share their work with family and friends in a studio exhibition.
