From Michael Rose

It is my hope to offer more online classes should these initial offerings be well received. Future classes will include material on professional development for artists, as well as topics in art business, art history, and art appreciation.

Back in January, I began researching and planning how I might be able to offer some of my course material online to reach a wider range of students. I have had many requests for online instruction over the years and have been considering the best mode to share my expertise with students. This idea has clearly taken on a new relevance and I’ve decided to move forward with four short classes to offer unique online educational offerings with affordable rates. Should these classes be well received I will be offering more professional development and art history programming online. You can learn more about my teaching experience on my Speaking and Teaching page.

You can register for classes by clicking the button at the bottom of this page and filling out this simple registration form. Please note that all classes will be conducted live via Zoom. Students should be comfortable with this free teleconferencing platform. Students will receive Zoom meeting details in a direct email from Michael after they have paid their class fee(s) using Paypal or Venmo.
