Monthly Teen Art Workshops at AMP give young artists time and space to focus on their creative interests—surrounded by inspiration and guided by guest teaching artists.

Each session offers hands-on projects, conversation, and feedback in a supportive studio setting or off-site art destination. Workshop topics vary and reflect what matters to teens—exploring personal voice, creative process, and new techniques.

Open to all skill levels. Materials provided. Suggested donation is $10, but all teens are welcome regardless of ability to pay.
