Art on the Edge

Art on the Edge is a free Saturday program for youth aged 12-15 years old, which meets over two, twelve-week semesters, September-December and January-April, and culminates with an exhibition in PAAM’s galleries. Students from towns along Outer Cape Cod work with professional teaching artists and explore a variety of media, from painting, printmaking, sculpture, and drawing to animation, comic books, installation art and silk-screen printing. Up to twenty students may participate each semester. Both materials and transportation are supplied. Students may apply for one or both semesters.
