BGSU Saturday Art Classes

Classes are divided by grade level. Class sizes and grouping can be affected by the number of teachers available each semester and the enrollment sizes of each grade level. All classes are taught by Juniors and Seniors BGSU Art Education majors in their Advanced Methods class. 

Primary Grades (Kindergarten - 4th grade)

 Students focus on an exploration of art materials. Students creatively express themselves while completing age appropriate projects and gain an understanding of the creation process. They practice motor skills, and the beginnings of art techniques. 

Middle/Junior High School Grades (5th grade – 8th)

Students continue to explore art materials while visually expressing themselves. Students work focuses on more specific art techniques that advance their ability in a variety of mediums.  Students gain a better understanding of what inspires art and work on themes such as self, community, and the world around them.

High School Studio (9th – 12th grade)

Students focus on advancing their abilities with familiar and new materials. They explore various art ideas, and practice problem solving skills while working on in-depth studio projects. Students work in broad themes of self-expression, current social and environmental issues, and themes inspired by contemporary artists.

 

In each of these classes, students will practice with both 2D and 3D art materials. Many projects will be based on and inspired by art history or cultures from around the world.

 

Art Exhibit

At the completion of each semester, there is an art show to celebrate the art created by our all of K-12 participants. Family and friends are invited to attend.
