Malta Society of Arts announces new course schedule

The Malta Society of Arts (MSA) has launched the new schedule of winter courses in the visual, applied and performing arts, encouraging people from all walks of life to apply.

Courses in the visual arts department include human figure nude painting, as well as art for leisure for adults, wood sculpting, art for mature students, and art for juniors. In the applied arts section, the courses offered include, but are not limited to, cake decorating, crochet, curtain making, dress making, clay modelling, and embroidery. With regards to performing arts, the courses focus mostly on music and offer lessons in pianoforte, violin, guitar and voice.

The second semester of the winter courses starts at the beginning of February and carries on until May, with the schedule covering both mornings and evenings depending on the specific needs of each course. The classes are held across Palazzo de La Salle.

According to MSA, the teachers have many years of experience under their belts, both as artists and artisans in their own right, as well as in the teaching sphere. “Their dedication and commitment transpire through their preparation for these courses – as testified by the many returning students,” it said.

Students who are already enrolled in the courses that started in October can renew their subscription, while new students can submit their applications at the MSA’s Palazzo de La Salle on Republic Street, Valletta.
