Program Offerings

NEW! The Creators Club

Due to popular demand, our Family Art Nights are expanding into a new series called The Creators Club! Each month, the club will meet for a standalone art workshop. Some workshops will be for beginner artists, called Curious Crafters; others will be for more advanced artists, called Master Makers. ALL of the workshops are all-abilities, meaning anyone in the Eagle Mount community can participate! Simply choose the group that corresponds with your comfortable artistic skill level. Eagle Mount participants and their siblings, family members, and friends are welcome.

Family Art Nights

As part of our Family Engagement programming, monthly Family Art Nights are occasions for participants and their families to engage in a fun art workshop, often led by volunteer artists from the Gallatin Valley community.

Theater Workshop

Hone your acting skills with theater games, design challenges, and acting exercises during our Theater Workshop led by awesome intern Erika. All participants – theater background or not – are welcome at this fun, social session. Session duration: 6 weeks.

Drawing

Participants practice sketching and learn a variety of drawing techniques, all while developing an understanding of how elements like line, shape, space, value, color, and texture play into their drawings.

Painting

Participants try a variety of painting techniques using acrylics, watercolors, and more, all while exploring how elements like line, shape, space, value, color, and texture play into their paintings.

Sibling Art Camp

Each summer, siblings of Eagle Mount participants are invited for three days of community and creativity. Sibs get to explore some of the activities participants get to do, from painting and printmaking to clay sculpture and papier-mâché. *Open to siblings of Eagle Mount participants; ages 8 and up.
