Class Experience
CLASS DESCRIPTION: This semester, we will immerse ourselves in the exciting history of the French Revolution.
Our main-unit project is TBD, but will be centered around the life and times of the French Revolutionary War. We will most likely build a model of the Bastille and the Palace of Versailles
We teach history through art! Our afternoon workshops are supplemental learning sessions to your child's education, as we add geography and history to all of our art classes. Our unique curriculum is designed and taught by Anna (MFA) and Juan Carlos Donado (PhD in Philosophy).
Our students work diligently through journal work, guided diorama projects, occasional free build time, drawing exercises, and memorization work.
Class tuition includes a sketchbook and all materials needed to build.
Additional materials required: Smock for new students.
Pickup included from Brooklyn Arbor all days. Pickup included from 132 on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Pickup is included from 84 on Thursdays.

About Goose Grease Shop
Goose Grease House is a Brooklyn-based art workspace that offers unique classes, interactive camps and creative experiences by blending art with history and culture. We offer in-studio and virtual classes.
Our studio is dedicated to expanding the minds and skills of young Goose Greasers. With a curriculum designed by husband and wife team, Juan and Anna Donado, budding artists are encouraged to think independently and creatively while immersing themselves in multi-media arts.
Juan holds a PhD in Philosophy and uses his background in languages and the classical cannon to develop robust historical lessons. Anna has a Masters in the Arts and combines many art forms into her mixed media, sculptural approach to learning history.
