Our hands on education series will teach new techniques, refresh your skills, and build a solid foundation at any level. We offer core workshops taught by staff and area artists at a subsidized rate and process specific workshops taught by our resident artists free of charge. See the list below for class location, student ages, and applicable fees.
Güttengarden Art Camp (GAC) is a week long Summer Camp program geared towards grade school children that’ll be held at Guttenberg Arts’ backyard Community Garden this summer. Campers will take part in activities that include drawing, painting and a variety of other 2D and 3D projects as well as learning about planting and growing flowers and vegetables.
The workshops will make the day fly by and teach a mixture of artistic disciplines and sustainable planting and growing techniques. The creative workshops will include butterfly mono-prints, clay signs for the garden, hand building clay planters, investigating shapes in nature, plant identification, creature creation and observational botanical drawing.
Guttenberg Arts is located at Bulls Ferry Studios, 6903 Jackson Street Guttenberg NJ 07093
