Portside Arts Center started their Upholstery class a little over one year ago and it has been booming ever since! This class was started by community suggestion and soon developed into one of our staple classes offered. We just opened up a 5 week Saturday workshop from 10am-2pm focusing solely on dinning room and kitchen chairs. All of our Upholstery classes are taught by John Price who has over 28 years of experience. It wasn't easy finding John, it took us a few months to hunt down a professional who was willing to teach this dying trade. This class is a DIY furniture renaissance and if your interested in learning how to "Do It Yourself" check us out at www.portsideartscenter.org

Check out the AWESOME RECYCLED RIBBON EARRINGS the girls made in Girl Power last night with teacher Ginger Metzger!!!! The girls worked their little fingers off Thursday night in the girl power arts and crafts class. They wove little pieces of different colored ribbon into accordion squares then fastened them onto earring backs. The earrings look professional and the girls can wear them for ever and ever!
 Every Wednesday teens come together to make awesome art!! Teacher Jenna Wilchinsky lets the teens work on different projects that interests them. Miss Jenna will introduce the students to different art mediums, techniques, materials and artists. This week they are working on Painting! They will explore different contemporary artists all the was back to the masters. Every few weeks the class will organize a pot luck, where each student brings in a different snack to eat while they make art! This is a great class and its been ongoing to 2 years. Portside is always looking for more students to join into this awesome class and anyone is welcome to join as long as their a teenager.
