About Our Teachers
Our artists work and live in your community. Many are teachers at
local schools. Some of our artists have been with us since we opened in 1982. Some are nationally recognized, many have won awards at juried shows, some have written and/or illustrated books. All work passionately to express their artistic visions. All feel that it is very important to have an artistic presence in the community and so choose to support this view by showing and working at the Broadway Gallery. We sincerely appreciate the support the community has given the gallery over the years.
Scholarships for Youth
Scholarships are available for students 7 – 18 years of age who are interested in art classes and otherwise unable to afford the classes. Forms are available at the Gallery, or by email to Samantha at sf@0x26.net

Description: What you can’t achieve with one medium, you can easily achieve with another. For example, the veins in a leaf or bark on a tree can easily be created with oil pastel and watercolors as oil pastels resist watercolor leaving behind beautiful textural marks. A simple practice of outlining trees and buildings with a fine tipped Sharpie marker can be just the right touch to make a successful painting, This class will explore watercolor painting as a main medium, but students will explore pastels, tine tipped markers, oil pastels and other materials to bring their painting to life.
