free arts programming for teens

IMG_3744.jpg

Atlas is ART 180's art center and gallery, a safe space for teens to relax, create, and explore new mediums of art and creative production. We offer multi-week and single day arts experiences where teens learn from and collaborate with professional artists while expanding their own creative skills. We've explored everything from animation, podcasting, beat making, character design, print making, mural design, and zine making.

 

Atlas is located at 114 W. Marshall Street, on the corner of Brook Road and Marshall Street.

All of our art experiences are open to high school students and are offered at no-cost.

Any questions should be directed to Dallas Roquemore, Program Manager, dallas@art180.org, or Maurice Leoni-Osion, Program Director, maurice@art180.org or 804-233-4180.

OUR ATLAS PROGRAMS AND WORKSHOPS ARE OPEN TO ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AT NO-COST. PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS ARE BELOW + FOLLOWED BY THE REGISTRATION FORM. YOU ARE WELCOME TO SIGN UP FOR AS MANY PROGRAMS AS YOU'D LIKE!

Get ready to laugh, play, and express yourself! Our Intro to Improv one-day workshop is a fun, high-energy chance for young creatives to explore the basics of improv: agreement, spontaneity, teamwork, and active listening. 

Led by a teaching artist from Richmond’s Coalition Theater, this session creates a supportive space to take risks, build confidence, and use your voice in new ways. Just show up ready to try something new and connect with others through creativity and play. No experience needed!

Rooted in ART 180’s mission, this workshop encourages freedom of expression, collaboration, and joy.
One day workshop, Saturday, April 11,
11:00-2:00 p.m.

@ ART 180's Atlas Gallery, 114 W Marshall St.

The Open Studio Series will consist of 9 workshops, hosted 1 day per week for 9 weeks, designed to provide low-barrier, high-engagement opportunities for teens to participate in creative learning. These open studios will provide art materials and opportunities for creative exchange, where participants can create, facilitate, and share in a peer-to-peer learning environment. These sessions are intended to serve new and returning participants in an open-enrollment model where teens can experiment, build skills, and deepen relationships within the community to support their artistic expression and practices.
Tuesdays, June 9 - August 4
10 am - 3 pm
