Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Immersion
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Immersion
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Drapery
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Immersion
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Dance with Me: Intro to Ballet & Tap (adult & child class) - Dance with Me: Spring 2026
In this introductory ballet and tap dance class, children will experience the fun of simple preliminary ballet movements and beginner tap movements with a parent or caregiver. The children will develop their motor skills, interact with peers and with the help of their parent/caregiver get a taste of this wonderful performance art form.

Tap shoes are a must for the children; leotard, tights and ballet slippers are recommended but not required. Adults are welcome to wear tap shoes, ballet slippers and dance attire if they so desire, but athletic shoes and clothing are sufficient for the adults. This is a great way to bond and have fun while introducing dance to your child!

Drawing (Adults) - Beginner Drawing for Adults
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Immersion
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Dance with Me: Intro to Ballet & Tap (adult & child class) - Dance with Me: Spring 2026
In this introductory ballet and tap dance class, children will experience the fun of simple preliminary ballet movements and beginner tap movements with a parent or caregiver. The children will develop their motor skills, interact with peers and with the help of their parent/caregiver get a taste of this wonderful performance art form. Adult/child pairs will learn one short ballet and one short tap dance for families to view on the last day of class. Tap shoes are a must for the children; leotard, tights and ballet slippers are recommended but not required. Adults are welcome to wear tap shoes, ballet slippers and dance attire if they so desire, but athletic shoes and clothing are sufficient for the adults. This is a great way to bond and have fun while introducing dance to your child!

Drawing (Adults) - Beginner Drawing for Adults
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier!

Drawing (Adults) - Drawing Immersion
Beginner Drawing for Adults - This class is an opportunity to learn about drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different drawing concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including lines, scale, shading, texture and composition. Students will draw from a still life set-up. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. Instructor: Mike Berlinski (5 weeks)Drawing Drapery - This workshop welcomes artists of all skill levels to the expressive, forgiving qualities of charcoal through a drapery chiaroscuro (the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting) study. Students will explore foundational techniques in sketching and shading to build their understanding of depth, lighting and proportion. In addition to traditional reductive work, students will have the option of tones paper and white charcoal to explore a different approach to these classic methods. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day)Drawing Immersion - This foundational art class is focused on transforming three-dimensional subjects into two-dimensional drawings through the precise study of light, shade, and volume. This course will emphasize observational techniques to help artists understand how light defines the shape, depth, and texture of objects. There will be a new study each class; whether or not a student completes the drawing will depend on their abilities. There is less emphasis on completing a project and more on learning a skill and how to use new knowledge and put it to action. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (5 weeks)Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)Pen & Ink - Discover the expressive power and intricate detail of pen and ink. Designed for artists of all levels, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills, this workshop will explore a range of mark-making techniques to render rich, natural textures and create a sense of depth and form. By the end of the workshop, you will have gained confidence in using the medium and completed a small drawing to practice new skills. Instructor: Janelle Chandler (1 day)

Safe@Home Course - Safe@Home May 14th (Thursday evening)
Safe@Home by Safe Sitter® is a program designed for students in grades 4-6 to prepare them to be safe and care for themselves when their parents are away for short periods of time. This is an instructor facilitated program that teaches students how to practice safe habits, how to prevent unsafe situations, and what to do when faced with dangers such as power failures or weather emergencies. Students are also introduced to the Safe Sitter® First Aid Chart and learn a system to help them assess and respond to injuries and illnesses. Safe@Home is ideal for students that have expressed interest in assuming the responsibility of staying home alone. The program is designed to prepare students for their first steps towards independence. (Class Fee includes a student handbook & a gift bag). *This is not a babysitter certification course (you can register for that course through Recreation). Upcoming Courses: Each of the upcoming courses covers the same material, please only sign up for one session.Small class sizes, 9 spots in each session.
Upcoming 2026 Classes Students in grades 6-8 that are interested in learning how to stay home alone safely as well as care for younger children should complete one of the SafeSitter babysitting courses. The SafeSitter course is currently being offered by the Cheshire Park & Recreation Department several times throughout the school year. Use the link below to see current offerings.
