WORKSHOPS & DEMOS


Workshops & Demonstrations

 

SCVWS provide members & non-members with up to eight workshops per year by world class art instructors. We also provide a community service by providing free demonstrations by these same artists that are open to the public. Our current venue for our "in person" workshops is The Historic Hoover Theatre. It is centrally located and is in walking distance to many lunch venues.

We also offer "online" workshops via Zoom, which may be recorded for the participants. Many of our online demonstrations have been recorded and are available to view. By providing this benefit to our members, we can offer these workshops at a good price and members can save the time and expense of having to travel to gain access to these fabulous instructors. All of the workshop descriptions below have all the details needed for your information.
