Teen Art Workshop: Art Scavenger Hunt
In this fun and interactive Teen Art Workshop, we’ll leave AMP to search for real-world examples of art principles and elements! Eagle-eyed art sleuths will be on the lookout for intriguing uses of color, texture, shape, form and more deployed by the artists and creators in their studios and spaces in neighboring Whiting Mills. After our scavenger hunt, we'll return to AMP to share what we've discovered, enjoy hot chocolate and snacks, and then set about incorporating these elements into our own art-making.
Fourth Saturdays | 10:30am–1:30pm | Ages 13–18 | Suggested Donation: $10
Monthly Teen Art Workshops at AMP give young artists time and space to focus on their creative interests—surrounded by inspiration and guided by guest teaching artists.
Each session offers hands-on projects, conversation, and feedback in a supportive studio setting or off-site art destination. Workshop topics vary and reflect what matters to teens—exploring personal voice, creative process, and new techniques.
Open to all skill levels. Materials provided. Suggested donation is $10, but all teens are welcome regardless of ability to pay.
