Word and Image    NEW!

This course integrates creative writing and visual arts. Students will complete projects that include a range of writing genres such as poetry, short stories and personal essays, coupled with art projects such as handmade books, collage, origami, drawing, painting and other visual art media. Classes will include a brief warm-up activity, and one project per week, with examples and demonstrations in class, followed by time for working on projects during the remainder of the session. Students will also be given the opportunity to share their projects with other students and to give thoughtful feedback. No experience is required. Students are welcome to work on projects outside of class, but this is not a course expectation. 
 
NOTE: A full list of materials to be purchased by the student will be available weeks before the class. The total cost will likely not exceed $30.
