Arts Learning Workshops: Create, Explore, Learn & Grow
The New York Mills Regional Cultural Center is pleased to present a full schedule of workshops from September 2023 through December 2023.
Join us for these arts learning experiences at the Cultural Center this Fall! We have partnered with Elevate OTC to offer monthly Elevate Exploratories AND we are once again hosting monthly Wednesday Workshops. Additionally, on the second Thursday of each month is “Art for Lunch,” a series of short 1-hour workshops. This means three opportunities for arts learning each month this fall!
Workshops take place at the Cultural Center, in the main floor Gallery space (unless noted otherwise), and are open to ages 16+ (unless noted otherwise). We ask that you please pre-register so that we can plan adequately; call 218-385-3339 to sign up or go to the Cultural Center website: https://www.kulcher.org/fall-2023-workshops-the-cultural-center/ where you can find links to register online for individual classes.
