Classes

We invite you to explore various art forms, aesthetics, and cultures while participating in an interactive creative experience! We offer multi-session classes, intensives, and workshops designed to accommodate diverse ages, skill levels, and time schedules. Many art classes and workshops are open to teenagers, encouraging multi-generational experiences.

Choose from a well-rounded list of creative classes from different artistic mediums, such as ceramics, drawing/painting, encaustics, glassblowing, glass fusing, stained glass, and more. Notably, classes and workshops are offered seasonally and are subject to change.

Our classes are small in size, with a cap on the number of participants, thus ensuring personal attention from the instructor(s). All classes occur within the scenic grounds and exceptional facilities of WheatonArts or virtually. Registration deadlines are typically one to two weeks before the class date.
