Tsuga Gallery to host classes

Tsuga Gallery is hosting two upcoming classes.

Art Spark is a mixed-media class that will encourage exploration in art while learning about the elements of design. It is intended for children ages 6-10 and will be held Tuesdays in February from 3:30 to five p.m. beginning February 5. The fee is $15 per class and includes all materials. The class is taught by Judy Vander Maten, who can be reached at 795-0907.

Mike Swift is teaching an ongoing drawing and painting class for all ages on Thursday afternoons from one to three p.m. The class includes still life drawing from three-dimensional objects as well as drawing from other images and drawing from one’s imagination. The fee is $25 per class. Students need to bring their own pencil and paper. Swift can be reached at 795-8043.

Pre-registration is requested for both classes and can be done by calling the teacher or stopping by the gallery.
