Saturday Junior Classes are for boys and girls
who love to draw and paint. We believe that
the right teacher "guides" rather than instructs.
He is understanding, inspiring. He taps the cre-
ative force of the child who then rushes into
action. The teacher will not judge the child's
sketches by adult standards, but he will sug-
gest and criticize so that the student can grow
in power and taste. The student learns to use
criticism constructively; to work patiently. He
also learns to choose, to see and to appreciate.
Students are placed according to age, experi-
ence, and interest. In each class they learn
drawing, composition and color. Subject matter
varies. We build background as well as art ex-
pression. The primary class paints and models
its own age world. The next age groups study
this world more closely. One group meets at
the zoo. Natural History Museum, or gardens,
to sketch animals or flowers. One class explores
the France of Roland and Oliver — horses,
country, customs. Another studies Medieval
England — castles, monasteries, Beowulf, Robin
Hood. Ulysses and his adventures come alive
as another class studies the Odyssey. The Vi-
kings challenge still another class as they find
out about their boats, halls and ways of living.

Crafts with work in copper, clay, and other
material engage the interest of many students.

Experimental Design is just what the title indi-
cates. In the care of an inspiring teacher the
students cut, paste, draw, letter, erect and
paint.

Drawing of the figure is seriously studied by
one class, and so is water color in another.

There are two fashion groups. After figure
study, one of these does fashion sketching,
while the other studies period costume at the
Museum and then sketches original costumes
for today's use. An older group studies illustra-
tion including various media and special
problems.

We feel that experience in all these classes,
which are specifically designed for children, is
of Interest and value to alt children, and
furnishes on invaluable foundation for study In
the Art School If the student plans an art career.

Our program is conducted by teachers who
are trained to work with children up to eigh-
teen years of age.
