When you choose to become a member of the Armory Art Center, your generous support at
any level enables the Armory to continue offering excellence in visual arts educational
programming through exhibitions and studio classes to adults and youth. Membership is
available at various levels. You must be a member to take classes.
The Armory Art Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit.
Tuition fees cover only 60% of the art school’s
operating costs. The other 40% is raised through
grants, fundraisers, and donations; thereby
subsidizing student tuition. The following policies
and measures are in place so we can continue to
serve our mission: “to provide high-quality visual
art school and art gallery services that stimulate
personal self-discovery and generate knowledge
and awareness of art as part of life.” By registering
for any class at the Armory Art Center, students
acknowledge understanding of and agree to the
policies listed below:
CANCELLED OR MISSED COURSES
There will be no make-up classes provided due to
student illness, travel, or other reasons not the
responsibility of the Armory Art Center. Students
enrolled in courses which are cancelled by the Armory
due to lack of enrollment or instructor illness will
receive a full refund. If a class is cancelled, every effort
will be made to notify students at least 24 hours before
the first class and full tuition will be refunded. The
Armory reserves the right to substitute instructors for
any of its classes at any time.
HOLIDAYS
For classes that fall on holidays, it is up to the teachers
and students to decide whether to hold classes or
schedule a makeup class within the same session.

NEW Courses
To accommodate all of the revelers who’ll come to this party, this year it will be held at
The Beach Club in Palm Beach. As always, there will be fantastic collectables and a gourmet
lunch. And, of course an array of phantasmagoric hats, worn by you, the participants! It is
always an experience to remember and lots of fun. Join us!
Visiting Master Artists Workshops continue into March; this is your chance to
experience a short course with a fantastic teachers from across the US.
Several exhibitions open on February 21 and include the works by Huguette Despault
May and Kathleen Elliot. These two artists come to the Armory through the auspices of
Katherine T. Carter and Associates. Large scale drawings are featured in May’s work and
flameworked glass in Elliot’s oeuvre. The Armory Faculty Show also opens that same night.
On March 28, the All Student Showcase features the works of Armory students in all
media. Please check with the Director of Education, Talya Lerman, to participate.
As always, the Armory appreciates the contributions that students make to it. We were
able to build two new kilns last summer, largely with donations from our ceramics students.
Tuition does not cover all our costs and we need to raise about 40% of operating budget
every year. Your help is appreciated. The Armory Art Center is a 501 (c ) (3) non-profit
educational institution.

march - april 2014 season calendar
This exhibition will feature the large scale drawings of Huguette
Despault May and glass sculptural works of Kathleen Elliott. In May’s
Hawser series, a hawser is the rope used to moor large ships, she draws
the massive rope in charcoal, showing its rhythmic braiding and
unraveling into fibrous tendrils, metaphors for the entanglements
experienced as human beings. Kathleen Elliot creates sculptures out of
flameworked glass, using a vocabulary of botanical forms, including
leaves, flowers, fruit and vines. The Huguette Despault May exhibition
was provided by Katharine T. Carter and Associates, a marketing and
public relations firm for artists based in New York.
