September Events
The Afterschool Program: Upcoming Open Houses!
Starting Artists is pleased to announce some changes in the way that we will be running our Afterschool Program this fall. First & foremost, we will offer the Afterschool Program to ages 10 – 19. We offer a warm welcome to our new 10 and 11 year-olds!
We will also pilot a new Afterschool structure. Students (ages 10 – 14) may sign up to participate at SA and will pay a sliding-scale fee while teens aged 14 – 19 may sign up as Interns who mentor the younger students on a work-study basis.
The 10-week program kicks off on Monday, October 4. To learn more and download the Student or Intern application, please visit the SA Programs Page. Questions? Email us or attend an Open House to tour our studio space, meet the SA staff, try an art projects, and see examples of student artwork!
Open Houses @SA: Tue 9/21, Wed 9/22, Thu 9/23, all from 5pm-7pm
