Starting a new art piece is always the hardest part… but not in this class! In Design Lab, we’ll explore playful and powerful ways to spark ideas, break creative blocks, and build strong design compositions. Artists will experiment with multiple composition sketches, pushing each one further to stretch their imagination and artistic voice. Throughout the class, you’ll learn how to shape an idea, refine it, and transform it into a final polished piece. This is all about exploration, expansion, and discovering just how far your creativity can go. Ready to push your artistic boundaries? Class is on Tuesdays from March 3rd–24th. Sign up today on the Goodyear Arts and Culture website!
