EcoArts Classes (free! donations encouraged)

Come to Youngstown from 5-7pm every Thursday with your family and friends to create art using natural materials. These guided, free EcoArts classes are a space for you to learn more about local plants, crafts, and get to know your Delridge neighbors. This is a family friendly, all ages welcome environment. Projects have included creating biodegradable clay sculptures, making seed papers, and much more.

Each class is led by one of our resident teaching artists part of DNDA's affordable housing program for artists at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center, including Franc Monke. We are looking forward to exploring all the possibilities of EcoArts with you! All ages welcome and no experience required.

Classes are free, donations to DNDA are encouraged. Donations go directly to paying equitable wages to the teaching artists who lead our art classes and into our broader Delridge community through Art programs.
