Guest Instructors

We have had so many wonderful guest instructors come and teach classes and workshops over the years!

If you are an artist and have a workshop or a class idea, please contact us at info@northwestartcenter.org

The Northwest Art Center is proud to have so many amazing guest instructors who inspire our students and community with their talents and creativity.
