Homeschool Art Education Program *NEW* Art in the Open: Murals, Public Works, and Community Expression
Foster your child’s love of art, knowledge, and ability with our Homeschool Art Workshops! At Art in Mind we realize how important it is for homeschool parents to give their kids the best possible education they can. Integral to an excellent educational program is the inclusion of fine arts, which has been proven to be essential in so many ways. The benefits include enhancing motor skills, fostering creativity, learning about history, recognizing cultural differences, and so much more. An education rich in art education encourages individuality, creative thinking, and the appreciation of the differences among others, which will impact one’s future.

Fall Semester 2025:
Art in the Open: Murals, Public Works, and Community Expression
Art in the Open is a dynamic, project-based homeschool art education program that explores the power of public art — from large-scale murals to small community installations. Students will consider world-renowned public works as well as local public art within the Capital District to learn how art transforms shared spaces, communicates collective values, and strengthens community identity. Students will create individual and group works that explore scale, message, and medium. Hands-on projects may include individual large-scale mural panels, community-inspired mixed media pieces, and temporary installations using eco-friendly materials.
Due to the limited space in each class, we cannot issue refunds or store credit if you must cancel your registration with less than 7 days notice of the start date. In-person classes cannot be exchanged for take-home kits.
