Dear Parents and Students,
The Art Education Area of the University of Iowa is pleased to announce the Fall, 2009, Saturday Art Workshops. Classes will meet for eight sessions on Saturday mornings from 9:30 - 11:00.

The first workshop session is scheduled for Saturday, October 10. (The last workshop session is December 12, and classes will not meet November 21 and 28, due to Thanksgiving Break.)
Classes will be held in North Hall, at the north end of Madison Street.

The following classes will be offered (please choose one class per child):
Fashion Runway Design Ranch – Students will create projects centered around fabric, using a sewing machine, different methods of sewing, and a variety of fabrics and fabric dyes.

Animals of the Ice Age – With clay and other sculptural materials as the foundation of exploration, students will explore the Ice Age, creating animals and dioramas.

The Saturday Art Workshops are open to all children between the ages of 5 and 13. The
classes are taught by Art Education students and staff. To cover the cost of expendable materials
and maintain the variety of Art Education outreach programs, including American Discovery Trail (http://www.uiowa.edu/~artlearn/outreach/index.html), we charge a $90.00 fee per student on the first day of class.

Please register by phone at 335-3013 – leave your name, address, phone number, and the student’s
name, age and selected class, with the secretary in the Art Education Office between the hours of 9:00 am - 5:30 pm. Or you may stop by the Office at 13 North Hall.  You may also register by e-mail: liz-voss@uiowa.edu.
REGISTRATION MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE CLASSES BEGIN. ENROLLMENT IS LIMITED.
Sincerely,

Steve McGuire
