Classes + Workshops for Adults
BAM’s studio art program encourages the creative abilities of all participants by offering experiences in a variety of art media which provide opportunities for making connections with BAM’s exhibitions. Through reputable artists and educators, we provide quality instruction for all ages in a small-class, non-competitive and enjoyable atmosphere. Class size is limited to optimize learning. Participants must pre-register to reserve a space as class size is limited. Please dress for mess!
Boise Art Museum was thrilled to introduce this new program for adults ages 55 and better. Our first series of workshops ran from September 2023 to April 2024.
