      <title>Reigniting Your Creative Spark (September 22, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://bayschoolarts.org/resources/Pictures/class%20pictures/open%20studio/GPatrice%20HRspark%20squared.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="141.75" height="142"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Instructor, Gabrielle Patrice&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;18 yrs &amp;amp; up&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style=""&gt;Do you recall being creative as a child? You would create as the moment spoke to you, coloring outside the black and white lines, letting your imagination be your guide. At some time, someone or even something may have happened or was said to instill a feeling of insecurity and limit this natural creative flow.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Do you find yourself saying, “I’m not creative,” or “I’m not a good artist?”&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this class we will work through existing blocks using various materials, mediums, and ideas, exploring paints, pastels, ink, color theory, and collage with a focus on building confidence in your creative expression.&lt;br&gt;
This is an excellent opportunity to find what you love working with as a creative tool. There will be visual and writing prompts to help you let go of any limitations that restrict your creativity.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This is an ongoing class with new prompts for each class. No experience is required, only your willingness to reignite your existing inner creative spark&amp;nbsp; during a journey of self-exploration in a safe environment to reclaim your unique and talented self!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Advance registration is required. Each class session needs a minimum of two students, so bring a friend!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Class is held the 4th Tuesday of each mont.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Across the globe, varying cultural traditions and ceremonies involve, and are oftentimes centered around, the making of and performance in a heavenly embellished and ornate mask. Masks can conceal one’s identity, channel the presence of another being or entity, or simply protect its wearer. In this workshop, we’ll delve into the art of sculptural mask making, creating our very own performance mask with wool. We’ll go through the process of needle felting and learn three-dimensional techniques to build an object suitable to be worn, imagining the many ways it can be brought to life.&amp;nbsp; Open to all skill levels.&amp;nbsp; This program has been organized by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and is supported, in part, by the Paul Mellon Endowment and the Jean Stafford Camp Memorial Fund.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Intro to Oil Painting:  For the Complete Beginner (October 05, 2026)</title>

&lt;p&gt;Have you always wanted to try out painting with oils but felt intimidated because you heard they were messy, hard, or too expensive? This four-day workshop might be the easiest way you can step into a medium new to you. All the materials and supplies will be provided and included in the class fee. All you have to do is show up ready to take notes and experiment. As a beginner, wearing clothing you don’t mind getting paint on is a good idea. This class is limited to six students, so everyone gets personalized instruction and guidance. We cover everything from how to prepare a good painting surface, the history of oils, how they are made, and how to hold your brushes and apply the paint in different ways. You will play with paint each day, but in the end, you will go home with a painting, a small set of brushes, and a palette knife.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Intro to Oil Painting:  For the Complete Beginner (October 12, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://bayschoolarts.org/resources/oils.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="200" height="200"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;18 yrs &amp;amp; up&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Have you always wanted to try out painting with oils but felt intimidated because you heard they were messy, hard, or too expensive? This four-day workshop might be the easiest way you can step into a medium new to you. All the materials and supplies will be provided and included in the class fee. All you have to do is show up ready to take notes and experiment. As a beginner, wearing clothing you don’t mind getting paint on is a good idea. This class is limited to six students, so everyone gets personalized instruction and guidance. We cover everything from how to prepare a good painting surface, the history of oils, how they are made, and how to hold your brushes and apply the paint in different ways. You will play with paint each day, but in the end, you will go home with a painting, a small set of brushes, and a palette knife.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 17px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri, sans-serif"&gt;minimum 3/ maximum 6 students&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Have you always wanted to try out painting with oils but felt intimidated because you heard they were messy, hard, or too expensive? This four-day workshop might be the easiest way you can step into a medium new to you. All the materials and supplies will be provided and included in the class fee. All you have to do is show up ready to take notes and experiment. As a beginner, wearing clothing you don’t mind getting paint on is a good idea. This class is limited to six students, so everyone gets personalized instruction and guidance. We cover everything from how to prepare a good painting surface, the history of oils, how they are made, and how to hold your brushes and apply the paint in different ways. You will play with paint each day, but in the end, you will go home with a painting, a small set of brushes, and a palette knife.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this 2-day class students will use PVC poles as bases and an eclectic mix of materials. Projects feature reflective glass, mirror, stained glass, and "pique assiette" (incorporating broken china or pottery). Students are encouraged to bring materials that you would like to add to your design such as broken dishes, tiles, beads, mirrors etc. If you can glue it down you can mosaic it, just keep in mind the materials you bring should be able to withstand being outside. Students will have to provide their own materials for installation at home. We will go over installation in your garden and the materials you will need to purchase.&amp;nbsp; Please bring a caulk gun to class.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instructor Cynthia Quesenberry&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;14 yrs &amp;amp; up&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class is an adventure in working with precious metal clay to learn beginner/intermediate techniques to create jewelry designs in Art Clay Silver. Art Clay Silver is a product especially formulated for objects that can be created and fired in the same day with outstanding results. Art Clay Silver is pure fine silver (.999) mixed with water and an organic binder. It is soft and easy to work with simple tools. Once it is fired at 1550 degrees for 45 minutes the product is .999 fine silver. Art Clay silver is available in several formulations such as syringes, paste, silver coated paper, and overlay paste. Art Clay Silver projects can be combined with ceramics, glass fusions, kiln fired, enameled, and torch enameled. The creative possibilities are endless. The techniques covered in this class include how to manipulate the clay, new techniques or to expand on the skills and experiences previously learned.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;New techniques covered in this class include how to create original bails using silver metal clay, and creating a channel design to hold a variety of inlay materials that students can choose from. This is a project that is open for original designs for beginners and experienced metal clay artists. We will be using a variety of tools, to support the design such as finishing, sanding techniques, and how to make simple repairs.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Intro to Oil Painting:  For the Complete Beginner (October 26, 2026)</title>

&lt;p&gt;Have you always wanted to try out painting with oils but felt intimidated because you heard they were messy, hard, or too expensive? This four-day workshop might be the easiest way you can step into a medium new to you. All the materials and supplies will be provided and included in the class fee. All you have to do is show up ready to take notes and experiment. As a beginner, wearing clothing you don’t mind getting paint on is a good idea. This class is limited to six students, so everyone gets personalized instruction and guidance. We cover everything from how to prepare a good painting surface, the history of oils, how they are made, and how to hold your brushes and apply the paint in different ways. You will play with paint each day, but in the end, you will go home with a painting, a small set of brushes, and a palette knife.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style=""&gt;Do you recall being creative as a child? You would create as the moment spoke to you, coloring outside the black and white lines, letting your imagination be your guide. At some time, someone or even something may have happened or was said to instill a feeling of insecurity and limit this natural creative flow.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Do you find yourself saying, “I’m not creative,” or “I’m not a good artist?”&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this class we will work through existing blocks using various materials, mediums, and ideas, exploring paints, pastels, ink, color theory, and collage with a focus on building confidence in your creative expression.&lt;br&gt;
This is an excellent opportunity to find what you love working with as a creative tool. There will be visual and writing prompts to help you let go of any limitations that restrict your creativity.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This is an ongoing class with new prompts for each class. No experience is required, only your willingness to reignite your existing inner creative spark&amp;nbsp; during a journey of self-exploration in a safe environment to reclaim your unique and talented self!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Advance registration is required. Each class session needs a minimum of two students, so bring a friend!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Reigniting Your Creative Spark (November 24, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://bayschoolarts.org/resources/Pictures/class%20pictures/open%20studio/GPatrice%20HRspark%20squared.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="141.75" height="142"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Instructor, Gabrielle Patrice&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;18 yrs &amp;amp; up&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style=""&gt;Do you recall being creative as a child? You would create as the moment spoke to you, coloring outside the black and white lines, letting your imagination be your guide. At some time, someone or even something may have happened or was said to instill a feeling of insecurity and limit this natural creative flow.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Do you find yourself saying, “I’m not creative,” or “I’m not a good artist?”&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this class we will work through existing blocks using various materials, mediums, and ideas, exploring paints, pastels, ink, color theory, and collage with a focus on building confidence in your creative expression.&lt;br&gt;
This is an excellent opportunity to find what you love working with as a creative tool. There will be visual and writing prompts to help you let go of any limitations that restrict your creativity.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This is an ongoing class with new prompts for each class. No experience is required, only your willingness to reignite your existing inner creative spark&amp;nbsp; during a journey of self-exploration in a safe environment to reclaim your unique and talented self!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Advance registration is required. Each class session needs a minimum of two students, so bring a friend!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Reigniting Your Creative Spark (December 22, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://bayschoolarts.org/resources/Pictures/class%20pictures/open%20studio/GPatrice%20HRspark%20squared.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="141.75" height="142"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Instructor, Gabrielle Patrice&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;18 yrs &amp;amp; up&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style=""&gt;Do you recall being creative as a child? You would create as the moment spoke to you, coloring outside the black and white lines, letting your imagination be your guide. At some time, someone or even something may have happened or was said to instill a feeling of insecurity and limit this natural creative flow.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Do you find yourself saying, “I’m not creative,” or “I’m not a good artist?”&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this class we will work through existing blocks using various materials, mediums, and ideas, exploring paints, pastels, ink, color theory, and collage with a focus on building confidence in your creative expression.&lt;br&gt;
This is an excellent opportunity to find what you love working with as a creative tool. There will be visual and writing prompts to help you let go of any limitations that restrict your creativity.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This is an ongoing class with new prompts for each class. No experience is required, only your willingness to reignite your existing inner creative spark&amp;nbsp; during a journey of self-exploration in a safe environment to reclaim your unique and talented self!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Advance registration is required. Each class session needs a minimum of two students, so bring a friend!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#434343" face="Trebuchet MS, Open Sans, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Class is held the 4th Tuesday of each mont.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
