VCUarts Qatar fall community classes begin with free taster sessions

This year, VCUarts Qatar – a Qatar Foundation partner university – is offering free taster sessions in graphic design, interior design, fashion design and painting and print-making for members of the public interested in exploring the University’s art and design community classes.

The community classes, held by VCUarts Qatar’s Community Education Program twice a year, are for those keen to pick up skills in art and design as a hobby, or who would like to enhance their creative practice for career purposes. The program covers courses in different disciplines, to fit various interests, levels of skill, and age groups. The free taster sessions will be held online in September, following which participants can choose from an array of individual courses that will be held in person at VCUarts Qatar from October 12 to December 7. All classes are scheduled for the evenings at or after 5.30 pm, making it ideal for those working during the day. However, based on evolving government rules and regulations, all classes may be shifted online.  The taster sessions and courses are led by professional artists and designers, including VCUarts Qatar alumni.
