In this class, students will explore the art, history and culture of Ancient Greece. This thriving ancient culture was built on volcanic rich land surrounded by the ocean which fostered agriculture, fishing, written language, trade and architectural wonders. From the Parthenon to elaborate pottery and democracy, the ancient Greeks left their mark on the world. Students will explore, through hands-on projects including architecture, theater masks and pottery. Students are encouraged to engage with the instructor and other students as they explore Ancient Greece. Recordings will be made available weekly for students to review lessons and terminology. Breakdown of Each Week: Week 1: Triorama of Greek Columns and Amphitheater Week 2: Medicine of Theater Week 3: "Magical" Science of the Ancient Greeks Week 4: Olympic Pottery

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am an illustrator, artist, teacher, business owner, and a pug mom. I have a degree in Illustration, a visual art minor with 20 years of teaching experience. I believe that knowledge is power and the more you know the greater your influence can be. Learning should be fun and individual. Even when my students are looking at the same picture for painting class, their work is very individual and unique to them and I love that part of the creative process. We are all learners and we should celebrate each other on the Journey! Reviews
