Fall art classes for adults and children at Waterfall Arts begin the week of October 5 and run through the first week in December. The after school and evening classes are complemented by a new lineup of one day workshops scheduled for Saturdays in late October and November.

Adult evening classes include Word/Art with Paul Oberst on Tuesdays; an exciting course in transferring printable words to any surface which may result in a room full of words or a sculpture incorporating personal imagery and text. Also on Tuesdays, Peter Baldwin will lead a free three week brainstorming session to come up with 350 ways to create a sustainable, thriving local economy. The goal is to have a compilation of these ideas ready for the 350 International Day of Climate Action on Saturday, October 24. Adele Drake will give instruction in the basics of painting and the integration of personal vision on Wednesdays in Painting: the Life of Objects. On Thursdays, Danny Piper will help students make functional ceramics in Introduction to Wheel Throwing and Stevan Hall will lead Drawing and the Human Figure for all ability levels on Thursdays, Long Pose Saturday Figure Sessions, a non instructional drawing group for intermediate to advanced levels, starts again on Saturday October 10 from 9:30 to 12 noon.

After school classes for kids are on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons from 3:30 to 5:30. Linda Stec returns to lead The Wonders of Clay for kids of all ages on Tuesdays, Ned Lightner will give instruction and encouragement to teens in producing videos in The Very Short Movie Workshop on Wednesdays and Drawing, Painting, Printing and Collage will be the focus for 7 to 12 year olds in the Thursday afternoon class.

The new lineup of Saturday workshops include Shake Up Your Art: Discovering New Levels of Creativity with Marcie Bronstein on October 24 from 9:30 to 12:30. Let go of your inhibitions and discover deep wells of creativity! Open to all levels, from aspiring artists to professionals.
Kathy Levine will share her nature paper casting techniques and how to embellish them on October 31 from 9:30 to 3:30. This fun workshop is suitable for all ages and levels. Laurie Adams will lead a Paste Paper and Gelatin Print workshop on November 7 from 10:00 to 3:30. Both techniques yield colorful prints and papers that have a multitude of uses. On November 14 from 9:30 to 3:30, learn to make a beautiful wool silk shawl with Rose Whitehead, who encourages parents and children to work together on this project.
