Art Classes
Art is a beautiful way to express yourself, explore untapped creativity, manage stress and connect with others. Each Living Well class is part of a four-week course (unless otherwise indicated) that is led by one of our art instructors, Eva Coker, Olivia Rusch or Bridget Stern. No previous art experience is needed.
Please register for classes at livingwell.nm.org at least 24 hours in advance. Note that we do not allow latecomers to join a session after it starts, so we encourage you to arrive on time or even a few minutes early.
