Sumner County students can enhance their creative minds during the 2016 – 2017 school year with the Arts After School program available through the Hendersonville Arts Council.
Arts After School classes take place weekly and are available to kids in grades 1 – 12. Students will learn color theory, drawing, painting, clay, sculpture and printmaking. At the end of the school year, Arts After School will produce a small reception for the kids to showcase their masterpieces to family and friends.
