The big question: How can I use art to stand up for my beliefs?

This course explores social issues and art with a message. You will develop skills in lettering, stencils, printmaking and poster making.

We will explore artists who use art as a means of social activism, like Basquiat and Banksy. You will explore different media to build skills and learn how to create your own artworks that communicate your message. You will develop practical art skills, problem-solving skills, lateral thinking, independent working, self-motivation and creative thinking.
