Where students transform their ideas into 3D forms!

  • Student choice and artistic voice are two integral components of learning in the 3D visual art studio. Elements of art will be explored through three-dimensional forms and materials. Young artists may be working with clay, fiber, paper, wire, metal, or, our 3D printer.  Whether you are just beginning, or a seasoned student artist, all students interested in art are welcome to discover the joy of creativity and making art.
