Children's Art Classes at The Center

New eight-week sessions of Children’s Art Classes will begin at The Log Cabin Center for the Arts on Saturday morning, March 12, at 9 and 10:30 a.m..  The Log Cabin Art Center is a part of The Center at 12700 Southwest Highway in Palos Park.           

Art instructors Jessie Schaar, Sarah Heflin and Maggie Martin teach the children to use a variety of artistic media and techniques, including drawing, painting, papermaking, papier-mâché, printmaking, pottery and more. 

Children are divided into three grade-level groups: K-1st, 2nd-3rd and 4th-8th graders.  The natural areas of The Center’s farm and woods provide subject matter, inspiration and sometimes the raw materials for the classes. 

The classes combine the worlds of art and nature, and are kept small to encourage individual self-expression.

A class fee of $88 covers all supplies.  Advance registration is required.  For information, call The Center at (708) 361-3650.
