EDUCATION PROGRAM

AVA offers a vibrant, year-round art education program for students of all ages, ranging in ability from novice to professional. Classes introduce students to the creative process, teach basic drawing skills, offer students exposure to media ranging from watercolor to sculpture, and allow participants to pursue advanced study in areas like oil painting, printmaking, watercolor painting, and figure drawing and painting. AVA draws on a strong faculty composed of more than 35 nationally and regionally known artists.
