Art Classes For Children

Time: 4:00pm - 6:00pm

Location: Rose Center

Sandi Starnes is continuing her series of in-depth art classes for children at Rose Center this summer. The series consists of three semesters with each focusing on a different medium including pencil drawing, watercolor, and oil painting. The classes meet from 4:00 to 6:00 P.M. for eight weeks. This gives your child 16 concentrated hours in one medium. The next semester will begin on Monday, June 2 with the drawing class. Each child must begin in pencil drawing.

The classes are open to children between the ages of 7 and 12 who have an interest in art. Each session is $20 (two hours). The 8-week semester cost is $160, which is due in full at the beginning of the semester. The class size will be no more than 10 students allowing for plenty of one-on-one attention for each child. A supply list of necessary materials for each semester will be available to pick-up at Rose Center.

The pencil drawing section will introduce a person to the basics of art and design: drawing shapes, objects, creating shadows, and full compositions. Your child will begin with simple images and progress to detailed compositions. Learning the elements of design (line, shape, mass, color, space, texture, and pattern) will help each child develop the ability to recognize how to execute a drawing.

To register your child for art lessons or for more information, call Rose Center at 423-581-4330.

Drawing Class

Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm

Location: Rose Center

Wendy Leedy Watson is continuing her Drawing Class at Rose Center in Morristown. Wendy is well known in the area for her drawings depicting life in east Tennessee. The course focuses on drawing as a finished art form rather than as preliminary work for other media. The technical aspect of drawing will be emphasized, including composition, and studies of lights and darks.

The course is taught in six-week sessions from 6:00 to 8:00 P.M. on Mondays. The fee is $42 for the course. The instructor will provide a list of supplies after registration. For more information call Rose Center at (423) 581-4330.

Sport Fencing Class

Time: 6:00pm - 8:00pm

Location: Rose Center

Rose Center is continuing its Fencing class this summer. Classes will be held on Mondays from 6:00 to 8:00 P.M.. Ken Patterson will be teaching the course. The fee is $50 per month. The minimum age is twelve. If you have questions, call 865-712-2327 or email debikemon@bellsouth.net.

Fencing is an individual competition between two opponents with blunted light-weight swords. Fencing is a contact sport that relies upon reflex, agility and coordination. Who can fence? Anyone! Any body type can benefit from the exercise. It is a good workout that goes at exactly the speed you want it to go. The sport of fencing is fast and athletic, a far cry from the choreographed bouts you see on film or on the stage. Instead of swinging from a chandelier or leaping from balconies, you will see two fencers performing an intense dance on a six-feet-by-40-feet strip. The movement is so fast the touches are scored electrically - more like Star Wars than Errol Flynn.

Foil, épée and sabre are the three weapons used in the sport of fencing. Foil and épée are point-thrusting weapons. Sabre is a point-thrusting as well as a cutting weapon. The target areas differ for the three weapons, though all three are scored electrically.

The main object of a fencing bout (what an individual "game" is called) is to effectively score 15 points (in direct elimination play) or five points (in preliminary pool play) on your opponent before he scores that number on you. Each time a fencer scores a touch she receives a point.

To register for the class call Rose Center at 423-581-4330. New students may join at any time.

The sport of fencing is fast and athletic, a far cry from the choreographed bouts you see on film or on the stage. Instead of swinging from a chandelier or leaping from balconies, you will see two fencers performing an intense dance on a six-feet-by-40-feet strip. The movement is so fast the touches are scored electrically - more like Star Wars than Errol Flynn.

Foil, épée and sabre are the three weapons used in the sport of fencing. Foil and épée are point-thrusting weapons. Sabre is a point-thrusting as well as a cutting weapon. The target areas differ for the three weapons, though all three are scored electrically.

The main object of a fencing bout (what an individual "game" is called) is to effectively score 15 points (in direct elimination play) or five points (in preliminary pool play) on your opponent before he scores that number on you. Each time a fencer scores a touch she receives a point.

To register for the class call Rose Center at 423-581-4330. New students may join at any time.
