The public is invited to see the studios, meet instructors and fellow students, and experience the class environment at GAC. Classes are offered for adults and children in a range of mediums, including blacksmithing, ceramics, fiber arts, metalsmithing, painting, drawing, and more.
“So many people are curious about taking classes here, but are sometimes nervous or intimidated about getting started because they don’t know what a class will be like,” says GAC Executive Director Maureen Belden “We want to give people the opportunity to sit through a class, so they can literally picture themselves as a student at GAC and get really comfortable with that. We know they’ll discover this is a very warm and welcoming place to learn, explore and have a lot of fun with a great group of people.”
All GAC class information can be found online at www.guilfordartcenter.org. No registration or payment is necessary for class observation, however, people should contact the office to make sure a class is running.
