If you haven’t tried pottery classes, you are missing out. Art House 7’s experienced instructors teach classes for kids and adults, in a new two-story wing of our studio, using the latest equipment. Wheel classes are exciting and among our most popular: bowls, vases, mugs, and more! We also teach clay hand-building. Classes are typically 5 to 7 weeks. And you have the option to work on your own in our Open Studio.

Spring Classes for various mediums begin April 1. Our students love the teachers and the vibe here: “There’s an exciting variety on order, the place is charming, and all the staff I’ve met have been wonderful. Loved it!”


Join us at Art House 7 to discover the charm of charcoal drawing’s simplicity and very forgiving nature. In this two-day workshop coming up this weekend (March 16-17), master artist Teresa Oaxaca will demonstrate her approach to drawing the human portrait in charcoal. Simple paper and vine charcoal will mostly do the trick. We’ll have a model for you to work from. Each day, there will be coffee, tea, and some morning goodies to get you started for the day.

Teresa’s workshops are among our most popular. Here’s one of her many glowing reviews: “Teresa is a great teacher — so talented and generous in sharing her knowledge. She is great at demonstrations and articulating ideas and techniques. The whole experience was better than I could have imagined.”


Registration is now open for Kid, Teen, and Adult Classes this spring!

Sign up today to secure your spot in one of MoCA’s wonderful programs! From drawing and painting to ceramics and mixed media, you are sure to find an inspiring art class. Enrich your creative journey with our talented instructors and explore the world of art in a fun and supportive environment.
