ADULT ART ENRICHMENT: ACRYLIC COLOR EXPLORATION
AGES 18+
In this 4-week Acrylic Color Exploration class, participants will use acrylic paints to explore
realistic and abstract themes - symbolic images unique to West Africa. Each class session will
end with a creative application of the day's skills learned, to produce a finished artwork which
will be the basis for the next class. The last session will include a mini-exhibition of everyone’s
work.
