Art Classes at Gallery ArtPlus

Three Chairs by Bruce St. Clair


On Monday, August 24th I had the chance to meet with one of the gallery's finest artists, Bruce St. Clair. The purpose of our meeting was to discuss the possibility of his instructing art classes at the gallery. However, as the conversation progressed we both realized we were missing critical information that would allow us to get the classes started. We didn't know which media Bruce should use in his courses, what time of day the courses should take place, etc.
So, the idea of creating a questionnaire was formed:

This questionnaire is interested in gaining a better perspective on what type of art classes the general population would prefer to attend.

The instructor for these courses will be Bruce St. Clair. Bruce is a world renowned high realism painter. Painting mostly in oils, Bruce has won several awards for his highly realistic works. Currently, Bruce is teaching fine arts courses at Loyalist College in Belleville, Ontario. Gallery ArtPlus is grateful for the opportunity to have Bruce St. Clair teach some fine arts courses in our downstairs gallery. As stated above, the following questions will be geared toward finding an general consensus to determine which type of classes Bruce should teach here at Gallery ArtPlus.


Which days of the week are most preferable to take a voluntary fine arts course:
a) Monday – Wednesday
b) Wednesday – Friday
c) Saturday


Which time of day is most preferable:
a) 9:00a.m. – 1:00p.m.
b) 1:00p.m. – 5:00p.m.
c) Past 5:00p.m.


How many hours would you be willing to put in for each class:
a) One hour or less
b) One – Two hours
c) Two – Three hours


Would you prefer:
a) To attend a workshop (concentrate the classes into approx. two days worth of learning)
b) Weekly classes lasting approx. one hour each


Which type of media are you most interested in learning about:
a) Drawing (beginning with simple pencil work)
b) Pastel
c) Watercolour
d) Oil
e) Acrylic
f) I would prefer to take a studio course in which I could work on my own pieces with the helpful input of my classmates and teacher


Thank you for taking the time to look through the questionnaire.

If you would like forward me your completed response, or have any inquiries, my e-mail address is brittany.knapp@galleryartplus.com.
