Overview

Sculpture is an advanced art course focused on the study and design of three-dimensional artistic form.  Students will work with a wide variety of materials, including clay, found objects, and wire, to take their creative vision off paper and into more rigorous forms of construction, allowing students to learn new artistic skills and entirely different ways of expressing themselves through the medium of sculpture.
