Art Tracks - New Location, New Classes

Greetings All!

I hope everyone is rested after another brief, lovely summer, and that the new school year is off to a positive start!  As many of you know, Art Tracks has a new address.  This year, our old room at Runnymede P.S. is unavailable, so we've packed our paints and moved half a block south to 328 Runnymede Rd.

Despite the  challenges of moving, we are very excited about having our own space!  With modifications to our new studio still underway, we're keeping fingers crossed that the work continues to progress smoothly so we'll be up and running before the month's end.  The projected start date for Art Tracks' after school program is Wednesday, Sept. 28th.

Our Wednesday after school class will run weekly, from 3:20 - 4:35 p.m., and the fee remains unchanged at $30.00 per week.   This class is filling up quickly, so if your son or daughter would like to join us, please drop me a line --- slots will be reserved on a first come, first serve basis.

If there is sufficient interest, we may also open extra classes.  Potential time slots include Wednesday, from 4:45 - 6:00 p.m. and Tuesday, from 3:20 - 4:35 p.m.

As well, I am often asked about adult art classes.  Happily, our new location affords greater scheduling flexibility, and consequently, we are now offering adult sessions as well.  If your "inner artist" is demanding release, feel free to drop me a line --- We have space in our Tuesday evening group --- All levels welcome!

Looking forward to another year with our marvelously creative artists!
