Explore nature and the arts at Krasl Art Center (KAC)! Multiple studios are ready to welcome students 13+  back for in person art classes after a year-long hiatus. Whether you are an established artist looking for a new skill, or interested in forming a new hobby, KAC offers classes for students at multiple skill levels and at varying lengths.

Indoor studio classes will have a 4-student cap, and new outdoor classes a 6-student cap, all created with student safety in mind. 

The new outdoor studio is part of KAC’s East Garden, dedicated in memory of Lupe Hopp and underwritten by Horizon Bank. The site is dedicated to interactive sculpture. This year, KAC combined the creativity and interaction of East Garden artist installations with the pragmatic need for an outdoor summer studio. Prismatic Hope, by local artist Andy Sawyer, is the colorful result. Sawyer’s design includes artist work stations for six (6) artists and one (1) instructor – all colorfully delineated, spaced and shielded to allow for safe artmaking.
