Is there a place in St Paul, MN where you can take sculpture classes without breaking the bank?I keep taking career tests and they always point me towards sculpture. I have a minor in fine arts and would like to experiment in this field but really do not have $700 to $1000 to audit sculpture classes at any of the local colleges. Is there a place such as workshops or foundries that offer less expensive... | |
Knowing the general Minn-St.P environment from jealous observation over the years before and after my sister lived there, it seems likely to me that there is something. Google does not seem to be the best way to look for it, having tried a couple.
I would start with those classes you can't afford and ask the instructors about workshops and craft centers that offer opportunities outside of the college - like the neighborhood craft center with large ceramic kilns down the street from me in Dallas. Our system of community colleges also has two levels of classes - the formal classes which can be audited for regular fees but also shorter workshop classes "Continuing Education" or "Community Access" or some variation. and you might check on those.
You might also do a search on "ceramic suppliers", "pottery suppliers" and "art foundries" and call about what they know. I don't think a foundry is going to have facilities for working on art within them.
You might look on CraigsList to see if classes/workshops are listed.
