Workshops

 

The Marion Arts Council provides workshops periodically throughout the year. Some workshops are family/children oriented and some workshops are for adults, providing an opportunity to explore a new or different form of art.

 

The fees for workshops are typically minimal covering material costs and for adult workshops instructor costs.

 

Pastel Painting Workshop

Saturday January 28th

If you missed the opportunity last summer to learn what you can do with chalk you have another chance. David Garrison and Cecil Houel will be at the Lowe Center again on the 28th. This is a six hour Saturday workshop and the cost is $65. David will be teaching landscape and Cecil will be instructing portraits. The workshop is from 9 am to 3 pm and is very hands on for artists. Bring a photo you would like to recreate in pastel…David and Cecil will guide you in accomplishing your goal! Bring your own pastel paper and chalk or supplies will be available for purchase.

 

Preregistration is required by calling 377-4846 or by email at marionarts@cityofmarion.org.

 

David and Cecil teach workshops both in America and in France. Visit their websites at david-garrison.com and cecile-houel.com to see some of their work.
