Clarkdale AZ (November 3, 2014) – Made in Clarkdale (MIC), as part of its charter, is offering many art education sessions during the Made In Clarkdale Art Show Dec 5th through Dec 14th at the Clark Memorial Clubhouse in historic downtown Clarkdale.
MIC invites schools throughout Verde Valley to bring classes during schooldays to experience the show’s exhibit and be taught by Member Artists. Last year approximately 300 students attended. This year’s offerings may include painting, clay sculpture, jewelry making, glass beads, playing with glitter and science as art, all creative adventures as students learn to appreciate the possibilities of art.
