General Information / Inclusion Services 102 Dear Portlanders, Did you know that the mission of Portland Parks & Recreation is to help Portlanders play? And the arts are fundamental to that mission—activating play through creativity and the imagination. It is no coincidence that we “play” the guitar or act in a “play.” Whether you are 5 or 95, our Arts & Culture programs have something for everyone to learn or enjoy. From hip hop to hula, watercolor to woodworking, or piano to puppetry… we offer classes in music, dance, theatre, creative writing, visual arts, and crafts. We also bring you free outdoor Arts & Culture events in your parks. These events feature Portland’s talented artists and reflect the vibrant cultural mosaic of our city. The arts, like all play, help kids and adults alike to learn, grow, and discover, while connecting us to self, others, and our place in the world. Arts and culture also gather us on common ground—to build community, to open us up to new and challenging ideas, and to celebrate the beauty of our differences—all the more important in these times. So let’s play! We hope to see you often in your community arts centers and parks.

Private Lesson Program for Youth – Program Requirements CMC's Private Lesson Program for Youth strives to provide the highest-quality music education to as many dedicated students as possible, regardless of ability to pay. To this end, CMC makes the following requirements, which parents & students should carefully consider before committing to lessons at CMC.
1. Practice Requirements Students should practice daily for at least as much time as their lesson length, complete any homework assigned by instructors, & progress in alignment with their ability to learn. NOTE: Students who fail to progress to the best of their ability will receive instruction on how to improve practice habits. If progress is still not made, CMC will require the student & parent to sign and fulfill a practice-improvement agreement. 2. Attendance Requirements & Policies Regular attendance is important. Lessons & classes should not be missed except in unavoidable circumstances. When a student must be absent, notify the CMC office as much in advance as possible to allow for instructor schedule adjustments. Absences are either excused or unexcused, as defined below: Excused Absence: • Student Illness – CMC must be notified before the scheduled lesson time. Only one illness per term may be Excused. Monday ______Tuesday ______Wednesday ______Subsequent illnesses will be Unexcused. • Unexcused Absence: Any cause not listed above. No credits or makeups will be offered for Unexcused Absences. Thursday ______Friday ______Saturday ______What is your ideal lesson day & time (and instructor, if known)? 3. Causes for Dropping a Student Space in the Private Lesson Program is limited. At CMC’s discretion, a student may be dropped for any of the following: Day ______Time______Instructor ______• Failure to progress to the best of their ability. • Failure to fulfill the terms of a signed practice agreement. • Failure to fulfill the musicianship requirement. • Failure to maintain good attendance. NOTE: A student may be dropped for two Unexcused absences a term, three Excused absences in a row, or four Excused absences during a term. Extenuating circumstances may be considered on a case-by-case basis. 4. Withdrawal Policy Once accepted, the lesson time is reserved for your child through summer term. CMC understands that extenuating circumstances arise and occasionally a student must withdraw before Summer ends. Because of the effort it takes to set up teacher schedules, a full two weeks notice is required. A refund of paid fees will be issued for the lessons that remain in the term. NOTE: This policy is different than the general PP&R withdrawal policy.

Private Lesson Program Policy Thank you for choosing Multnomah Arts Center for your music lessons. Our goal is to make music a meaningful and enjoyable part of your life, and we believe that participation in the arts is essential to healthy individuals and communities. Thank you for your patience as we work to provide the best schedule for everyone in our community. MAC’s Private Music Lesson Program strives to provide high quality music education for as many dedicated students as possible. To this end, MAC makes the following requirements, which students should carefully consider before committing to lessons.
1. Practice Expectations Students should practice often. A good guideline is to practice each day for at least the duration of your lesson. Talk to your instructor about their recommendations for you. Instructors may require purchase of additional materials not included in listed registration fee
2. Attendance Requirements Regular attendance is important. Lessons should not be missed except in unavoidable circumstances. When a student must be absent, notify the MAC office as soon as possible.
3. Cancellations and Absences When Multnomah Arts Center cancels a lesson due to teacher illness, inclement weather, or other reasons, the teacher will offer the student a make-up lesson if possible, generally by extending the term one week. Sometimes the lesson may be made up by offering the student longer lessons to make up the time. If make-ups are not possible by the completion of the school year, a refund will be provided.
When the student cancels or misses a lesson, the student is not eligible for a refund. The teacher is not obliged to make up the missed lesson. However, if the student has given fair notice with a good reason, the teacher may schedule a make-up at their discretion.
4. Withdrawals Once registered, the lesson time is reserved through the end of the school year (in early June). To withdraw before then, please notify the MAC office at least seven days before the next lesson, and a pro-rated refund of paid fees will be issued for the lessons that remain in the term.
5. Lesson Change Requests To request a change to your lesson day, time, length, or instructor, please complete the Lesson Change Request Form, available in the office. We will do our best to accommodate your requests.

Without a plan of action and a way to appraise and revise our work, we can get 'stuck' or 'lose our way.' This workshop is a figure painting 'action plan' using a limited palette of four colors that will help you advance as an artist. Part I will focus on gesture, proportion, mapping lights/darks, and how to effectively block in a painting. Part II is the action plan for completing a figure painting to a higher degree of finish using the initial block-in method as our jumping off point.
