Help Wanted for the Fine Arts Series

Every year Chestnut Ridge Academy does a Fine Arts Series during the spring semester. It is a series of events and workshops that focus on one artist. Through the series, students learn about the artist and try to create art in that artist's style. In the past, we have studied Vincent VanGogh, Jan Vermeer, and Wayne Thiebaud. This year our focus will be on Henri Matisse. We hope to kick off this series in early February.
We try to keep it geared for all ages. In the past, we have split into groups of K-8th grade and High school with one group meeting in the morning and the other in the afternoon. 

We are looking for help with teaching the workshops. 

​Here are the details:

Help Wanted:

The teacher should provide CRA with a brief description of the workshop they are teaching.
