Art Classes
We want to offer an exciting lineup of classes just for you. Please let us know what you want to learn!
The Poets Workshop
THE POET’S WORKSHOP led by BA Poet and Artist Alice Reid, is a theme-driven exploration of our lives and experiences through spoken/written word and an examination of poetic forms, genres, techniques, styles, and methods as means to revise and refine our work. It is open to the general public but one must be 21 years old to participate.
Please click the REGISTER HERE button to fill out the Google form if you are interested in participating and Alice will get in touch with you about the online weekly sessions (Monday nights) and the resuming in-person meet ups at Bellefonte Arts starting in June 2025.

Have you ever wanted to learn the basic stitches for crochet or knitting?
Local artist Leslie Friedman teaches 2 hour small 4 people max classes on both topics. She recommends picking either crochet or knitting and sticking with that one technique until you've mastered it, as it does take practice.
In each beginner class you are provided with a hook for crochet, or a pair of needles for knitting, along with a skein of acrylic yarn.
​
Beginner Knitting class:
May 20th, 6-8 pm
Students will learn how to put stitches on needles (cast on) and go on to the knit stitch. After learning the knit stitch, students will leave with the knowledge and materials to work on a scarf on their own.
Beginner Crochet class: 2 Dates
May 12th, 6-8 pm and
