SAFE SUMMER ART CLASSES AT IANNELLI STUDIOS!
Four art classes were conducted at Iannelli studios in June under the direction of Michaela Ruff, former art teacher at Field school, currently working in Oak Park. To help reduce the possible spread of COVID -19 the studio was cleaned thoroughly after each class. Students wore masks, practiced social distancing, class size was reduced and students had their own individual bag of markers and supplies. All the students enjoyed the classes and created several pieces in various media.
