Studio 55: Guided is a welcoming, instructor-led art class designed for adults ages 55 and up. Join Jordan Murdock-Thompson every other Friday to explore a variety of structured projects across different mediums and techniques—everything from painting and drawing to sculpture and mixed media. Each session offers step-by-step guidance, time to experiment, and plenty of encouragement as you build skills and enjoy the creative process in community.
On alternating weeks, Jesse McCormick facilitates Studio 55: Open Studio. Open Studio sessions provide access to a wide range of supplies and mediums for you to explore—or you’re welcome to bring your own. A great opportunity to create in company. Free for anyone bringing their own supplies or a small fee to use Spiva’s supplies. Learn more about Studio 55: Open Studio by visiting an Open Studio listing on our website.
What to expect in a guided Studio 55 class:
- Guided projects with clear instruction (great for beginners and returning artists)
- A rotating mix of mediums and techniques throughout the season
- A relaxed, social studio environment focused on learning and enjoyment
Registration note: Space is limited—advance registration recommended.
