Our SaddleBrooke artists are often heard talking about either initiating their artistic pursuits or enhancing them when moving to our beautiful community. Even the more accomplished benefit from learning new techniques and mediums from their fellow artists in the Guild classes. Are sunrises, sunsets, mountains and Saguaros tickling your creative instincts? Join a class this season. Classes are offered at all levels – beginner, intermediate and advanced for different medium.
Starting in January and running through April, the Topaz Room will be jumping with activity as our new class schedule progresses. The schedule is under continuous development during the season, so check the Classes page at saddlebrookefinearts.org for new listings and schedule updates. Remember, with a membership fee of $20 annually, each class is $10 less.
For more information and Registration go to the Classes page at http://www.saddlebrookefinearts.org
Some classes may require an additional supply fee due on first class day.
All classes are held in the Topaz Room, HOA Two Arts and Crafts building.
