The Emerson believes that creative self-expression enriches people's lives and our community. Our classes and workshops are taught by working artists-teachers, including artists exhibiting work in the Emerson's contemporary art galleries. Our classes and workshops are exhibit-inspired, community-based, and interdisciplinary explorations of painting, drawing, sculpture, mixed media, printmaking, ceramics, and new genre.

Established programs include open life drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture and mixed media classes. For a current class schedule click here.

Many Emerson tenants also teach out of their studios. For more information on tenants, click here.
