CLASSES - PROGRAM SUMMARY
Overview

Fun, hands-on courses for children and adults, focused on understanding, appreciating and creating art that moves.

Description

QBOX classes will be fun and educational, focused on the creation of art. Each class will provide insight into the demands involved in creating mechanical, kinetic and electronic art. Class topics will range from circuit boards and LEDs to the creation of interactive mechanical sound sculpture. These classes will be focused on the novice experience, allowing anyone and everyone to get involved and enjoy themselves, but will also act as a means for artists to expand the public's knowledge and to seek help finishing projects related to the themes of the classes.

Our goal is to develop ongoing relationships with a variety of organizations that can make use of our unique space and our valuable resources to develop and teach classes that support our mission.

Activities

Classes will be focused on the creation of art and will be open to everyone – artists, non-artists, adults and children. They will include:
  • Workshops
  • Skill-building
  • Project completion
Roles and Participants

QBOX will host and promote classes which are brought in and taught by outside organizations. We will seek out organizations which conduct classes taught by working artist, teachers, and sometimes by those who simply have a knack for making things. All the classes will be open to youth and adults.

Impact

These classes will help to make art and technology more fun, demystify it, and provide interesting ways to bring the young and the old together while making the toys of the future.
