Queer Art Club
August Session
Everyone will meet in Rm 116 and then walk over to the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art. The museum will be featuring artists Nancy Genn, Donna Fenstermaker, and Soleé Darrell. Teens will meet and talk with an inspiring intergenerational group of artists to discuss Genn’s work and her impact on subsequent generations. Teens will also explore the joy of experimenting with free-flow monoprinting.
About the Club
Join us for a night of self expression every third Wednesday of the month. We are partnering with Positive Images to provide a safe and inclusive space for teens to find their artistic voice through radical self expression. Each month we will explore a new art theme including a demonstration from a professional artist and all the materials needed to make the project. We will also provide additional art materials if you just need a space to hang out and make your own art! Dinner and soft drinks included! Bring your friends! This club offers an artistic community of inclusion for all identities of gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity.
Positive Images is a grassroots organization whose mission is to provide support, advocacy and education to Sonoma County’s LGBTQIA+ community. We nurture positive self image through creating an affirming environment where everyone can explore their identities, develop leadership skills and participate in building a just and equitable society

Class FAQ
We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class.
Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee (minus the payment processing and services fee), or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.
All credits must be used within 1 year.
