The Brewery Arts Center is adding a sculpture class by partnering with master sculptor Debbie Corona of the Carson Valley Mobile Art Center to create a six-week workshop. This is a beginning sculpture class focusing on the figure. The class will create two instructor-led sculptures and one student-created sculpture depending upon progression of the class as a whole. Sculpture concepts and techniques will be discussed while working three-dimensionally. It will look at the figure historically through the modern era. Everyone will be creating the same sculpture through verbal instructions and demonstrations. Students will need to provide an apron or work clothes. Ceramics can be messy, closed toes shoes and lidded water bottles need to be used. All other supplies and materials will be provided. The schedule: Session 1 – April 2-23, Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., building/sculpting only Session 2 – April 29, glazing only, 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. or until finished Session 3 – May 7, impromptu group critique and pick up work, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. (Bring a light refreshment to share and your own drink.) The fee for this workshop is $375 per student, includes all materials/supplies, both bisque and glaze firings with a $20 usage fee to be paid on first day of class. Register for classes on the BAC website, breweryarts.org under the “Classes, Concerts and Events” link. For information contact gina@breweryarts.org.
