STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. - Artists, community members and friends of IS183 Art School are invited to join faculty, staff and board members at a Spring BBQ on Tuesday, June 23 from 5 to 7PM. We’re celebrating the completion of the school’s exterior renovations and our annual week-long Art Intensives for adults.
As a gesture of thanks all capital campaign donors and intensive students/instructors are offered a free plate of food! For all others food and beverages will be available for purchase, or guests are welcome to bring a picnic. Join the fun while listening to the music of artist and local favorite, John Clarke.
Week-long intensives are designed for amateur and professional artists, looking for an art adventure. From Monday, June 22 through Friday, June 26 students may register for:
· “Photography: Documentary Storytelling Farms” with Jason Houston
· “Watercolor: Simple, Fast and Focused” with Mel Stabin

Whether you have taken classes with us before or if you are just getting to know IS183 this event is a great way to be introduced to everything that is going on at your community art school!
IS183 Art School is housed in the ‘Citizens Hall”, one of the oldest public buildings in the Stockbridge, MA hamlet of Interlaken (formerly Curtisville). Citizens’ Hall is individually listed on the National Register and the State Register of Historic Places and has recently received a fitting makeover, through the generous support of grant funded programs and individuals.
IS183 Art School is a non-profit community art school encouraging people of all ages, means and skill levels to enrich their lives through hands-on experience in the visual arts. Located half-way between Great Barrington and Pittsfield in the Interlaken village of Stockbridge, IS183 Art School offers year-round programs in ceramics, painting, drawing, fiber arts, sculpture, mixed media and more for children, teens and adults.
IS183 also offers week-end workshops for adults; Young Artist programs during school vacations and in the summer; birthday parties; custom classes and private lessons. Classes are held during the daytime, evenings and weekends, for all levels from the absolute beginner to professional artist.
