Grupp Art Academy Sessions

Session 1:

Drawing

Cost
$112-$125

Bring your imagination to life! In this drawing class, you’ll take an everyday object from home and transform it into a bold, comic-book style character. From sketching on templates to creating a large, poster-sized final piece on mixed media paper, you’ll explore storytelling through design, line, and exaggeration—just like real comic artists. No cape required, just creativity!

Grades 9–12 | 6–8 PM
Dates: October 21, 28 & November 4, 11

Session 3:

Sculpture

Cost
$112-$125

Go big and bold! In this sculpture class, you’ll build a giant mask using spray foam, tools, and paint. From wild textures to dramatic colors, you’ll transform simple materials into a one-of-a-kind 3D artwork that’s larger than life.

Grades 9–12 | 6–8 PM
Dates: January 6, 13, 20, 27

Session 4:

Printing

Cost
$112-$125

Carve, ink, and press your imagination into life! In this printmaking class, you’ll design and carve your own 8×10 linoleum block, roll out bold black ink, and print your design onto canvas. At the end, each student’s print will join together to form a collaborative masterpiece — a wall of unique voices woven into one artwork. And the best part? You’ll still get to take your own piece home as part of the larger story.

Grades 9–12 | 6–8 PM
Dates: February 3, 10, 17, 24

Session 6:

Mixed Media

Cost
$112-$125

Bring your inner spirit animal to life! In this sculpture class, you’ll build a 3D creature using wire, newspaper, and papier-mâché, then finish it with bold paint and details. Each mask-like form becomes a personal expression of identity, imagination, and creativity; a messy, hands-on project where every student walks away with their own powerful animal creation.

Grades 9–12 | 6–8 PM
Dates: March 10, 17, 21, 28
