Western Heritage & Art Center

The Center offers on-going Art Classes for K-12 students and special classes for Teens & Adults. The students learn the seven Elements and seven Principles of Design. They also learn to communicate through the arts and they make a connection within and across the arts to other disciplines, life, cultures, and work. We have classes specifically geared to home-schoolers as well as an after-school program. Please visit our website for upcoming special events and to register for art classes.
