Workshops for Adults

adult workshops

Take a Danforth workshop or short course* to meet new teachers or try something new!  Workshops meet 1 or 2 times, and short courses, marked with an asterisk, meet 3 to 5 times. Learn a new painting technique, make some jewelry, figure out how to work your digital camera or create a Japanese woodblock print! There are many options to help busy adults make art a part of their life!
