Welcome to 2012 Youth Summer Art Workshops at 701 Center for Contemporary Art !!

This summer, in June, 701 Center for Contemporary Art will present its third Youth Summer Art Workshops. Children and teens ages 6 to 17 will have the opportunity to get hands-on experience in the arts, creating artwork under the guidance of local artists and art instructors. Students will be able to work in ceramics, create comics and coloring books, try their hand at print making or transform found and recycled objects into sculptures.

Classes will be held at 701 CCA’s Artist-in-Residence studio loft, located on the second floor of the historic 701 Whaley building in Columbia. The building used to be the community center for mill workers and residents of the nearby Olympia mill village. Now Columbia’s budding artists can join the creative community at 701 CCA.
