Sawdust Art Classes


Sawdust Art Classes serves a unique population of both local and visiting patrons, providing art classes in a variety of different mediums while also highlighting the artistic history of Laguna Beach. Our classes are held on the Festival grounds, giving you the opportunity to experience the magic of Sawdust off-season while our Artists teach their craft hands-on. All materials are provided in the cost of the class and absolutely no experience is necessary, unless otherwise specified. All we ask is that you bring enthusiasm, a desire to learn, and to have fun!
