Art can speak for itself.
Sculpture is a set of four combined classes to create a multilevel platform.
Students are able to gain an understanding of sculpture concepts, vocabulary, materials and processes through the construction of three-dimensional objects.
The course includes four levels needed to obtain the Associates of Arts Degree in Sculpture. It is taught by instructor Greg Gilbertson.
Artists create woodworks, stone carvings and clay moldings for class.
Gilbertson said some of them speak little English, but that doesn’t hinder their art from being good.
The class includes a lecture and lab that meets on Mondays from 9 a.m. – 3:25 p.m. or Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:10 a.m. – 2:20 p.m.
