The Study of Figure and Portraiture in Sculpture

Artist Kim Bernadas offers sculpture classes with courses of study for the novice as well as the professional. Students will be guided through the process of modeling a portrait or figure from life using traditional water-based clay with or without the use of an armature.  With a focus on gesture and proportion, the student will learn key observation skills directly from a live model, to bring about a better understanding of structure and form. Teaching methods will include hands on demonstrations, as well a discussion in classical ideology of the human figure and its form. The course is appropriate for students of all levels who have an interest in sculpture. Classes are held in the Burnt Canoe gallery Tuesday nights from 6pm-9pm.

Creative Writing Workshop - Narrative

Creative Writing Workshop - Narrative

Instructor: Beth Ann Fennelly 
Genre: Narrative
Number of Sessions: 1
Meets:  10 AM – 12:30 PM CT
Dates: Sunday, March 15, 2026
Where: Burnt Canoe Studios (4820 Banks St, New Orleans, LA 70119)
Cost:  $95/ $88 early bird until March 1, 2026.

– Two first come discounted spots for BIPOC students at $47.50 / $44 until March 1, 2026.

What should we do when we have the urge to write our stories but can’t figure out how or where to start? This all-levels, interactive workshop provides strategies for those seeking to answer this question. Our main strategy? Start small.

Our spirit animal for this class will be the hummingbird. The hummingbird is the only bird that can fly forward, backward, sideways, and, for short distances, upside down. Precisely because they are so small, hummingbirds can do things other birds can’t. Likewise we’ll look at tiny texts and study the things that they can do because they are small. How can attention to the tiniest literary creations challenge and inspire us?  How can writing small trick us into writing our big stories?

 

Our time together will be a mix of craft talk, including insight into varieties of word-hummingbirds such as the monostich, the 6-word memoir, the aphorism, the ten-second essay, and the American Sentence. We’ll also cover the top ten things I’ve learned from writing tiny texts before rolling up our sleeves and generating my favorite short form: the user-friendly micro-memoir, an exciting hybrid that combines the extreme brevity of poetry, the narrative arc of fiction, and the truth-telling of creative nonfiction. We’ll be sure to save time for sharing our work with our fellow writers.

Class price includes a signed and personalized copy of the newly-released The Irish Goodbye: Micro-Memoirs!
