PRIVATE LESSONS
These special lessons are great for students who can't make it to one of our scheduled classes. Artists as young as 4 years old are eligible for private lessons. Our instructors focus on challenging on artist's existing skills and taking them to the next level, while introducing them to new techniques, materials and styles. Lessons are designed to build students' skills and knowledge of art while keeping their interests in mind. |

Cultural Equity & Appropriation PolicY
RCAC DOES NOT ENGAGE IN CULTURAL APPROPRIATION.
Cultural appropriation specifically involves intentionally or unintentionally adopting elements of a culture, such as symbols, music, or ceremonies, without permission, particularly from cultures different from one's own, and especially from marginalized and underrepresented cultures.
Cultural appropriation in the arts restricts access, marginalizes communities, and harms the cultures being borrowed from. While RCAC adheres to the Indian Arts and Crafts Act, our commitment goes beyond truth in advertising to advocate for Indigenous Peoples' rights to control and benefit from their cultural knowledge and artwork.
Therefore, RCAC is committed to avoiding cultural appropriation. Instead, we prioritize programming that authentically represents the cultures of the artists and community members involved.
