WELCOME!  Artists from Fleetville, Waverly, Clarks Summit, Factoryville, Dalton,  Nicholson, Kingsley, and Scranton practice art each week at the Art Room with visual artist Barry Singer .

Lessons will be held in three locations this year: Fleetville, Waverly, and Clarks Summit. Call for 570-945-7807 for details.

Local artist Barry Singer formed the Art Room in 1994 when he saw the need for an art school for children. Since then hundreds of children and adults have been inspired to explore and develop their art skills. The foundation of each class is drawing. All students learn the basics of sketching. Then lessons in still life, landscape, portrait, and cartooning are taught. Techniques with pencil, markers, charcoal, pastels, ink, acrylic, and watercolors are demonstrated. Personal creativity is stressed. This class is ONLY for children who show a genuine desire to learn. Children are encouraged to begin portfolios of their best work.

What to wear. Wear old clothes. We use paint and ink that won't wash out.

What about snow? If there is a little snow on the ground or in the air we will still have class. If Mr. Singer decides to cancel class, he will call you. Please feel free to call if you want to know if class is cancelled (945-7807). The most important thing is to let the driver use his/her best judgement.

Make up classes. If several classes are missed due to bad weather a make up class may be scheduled for a Saturday morning.

Holidays. We don't have art class during the week of a major holiday (Thanksgiving and Christmas). A reminder will be sent home.

Bulletin Board. Student work will be displayed on the bulletin board. Check it out!

Donations: donations of art supplies from any source are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Art supplies are available in The Art Room for class use. As students learn about quality of materials, they will know what to invest in for their personal use. Buying kits with various markers and paints should be avoided. These are usually of poor quality.

For safety,parents should drop off and pick up young artists directly at The Art Room door. Please do not bring toys, food or drinks.
