Saturday School classes offer opportunities to improve art skills, try new art forms, and build a portfolio of work. Established in 1922, Saturday School offers quality art instruction to youth and adults during a 10-week semester offered in both spring and fall. Herron's classes take place at Eskenazi Hall on the IUPUI campus, and at Herron's Sculpture and Ceramics building, on the north edge of the IUPUI campus.

Herron alumni and award-winning junior and senior Herron students teach Saturday School classes. Class size is limited to allow for highly individualized instruction in a variety of media including ceramics, photography, drawing, painting and more.

Fall Semester: September 13 through November 15, 2008.
