Hopkinsville Art Guild slates 5 workshops

The Hopkinsville Art Guild has announced five new workshops for community members, beginning with a class where each participant will create a still life representative of their interests.

The still life class taught by Tommy Fletcher will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Aug. 3, at a location to be determined. Each class member will bring four to five objects and materials for their preferred medium, such as paints, charcoal, pastel or pencil.

“Tommy will guide you in creating your piece of artwork,” organizers said.

The deadline to register online for the class is July 30.

All of the classes are free to guild members and $35 per session for others. Students pay $15.
