DRAWING & PAINTING

Watercolor, pastels, oil painting, drawing, collage, art studio sampler classes, and more are taught by talented local artists at Strawberry Hill Center.

“… I love the Park District classes because I get to see what others are painting, and I can share my years of painting with other students. I learn new things each time I begin a new painting or see what other painters have done. It keeps me young.”
