This class is in need of a student assistant (class monitor).

A student assistant helps the instructor and other students with zoom issues during class. There are usually very few issues and typically involves helping people with tasks such as unmuting themselves. Beyond that, you are still able to fully participate in the class as a student.
In exchange for this helpful service, Gage offers a 55% reduction in the tuition of the class that you assist for.

If you would like to help out and have some experience with zoom, please email chad@gageacademy.org The position is not guaranteed.

Are you an intermediate or advanced student who likes the structure of a class, but want to work on your own projects? Do you enjoy feedback in a supportive and creative environment? The Mentored Studies program is designed for you! Join a group of motivated peers for weekly painting sessions in which you complete work in progress, start new work, or develop new ideas, while mentored by a Gage teaching artist. The group will be led by a different Gage artist each quarter, starting with Jeffrey Simmons. The four-hour format is designed for adequate in-class work time. Work sessions are supplemented by occasional readings, discussions and critiques of student work.

  • Bring at least one finished drawing or painting, and another that you are working on, along with your preferred supplies. A sketchbook or notebook will also be useful.
  • Additional supplies will be discussed in class.
