Alpha Romeo Tango (ART) Program 

FREE Art Classes for veterans, active duty service members, and members of the National Guard/Reserve.

Let ART inspire and connect you! This 10-week series of art classes focuses on drawing and hand-building clay, held at both the Military & First Responders Center and at the Canton Museum of Art. Sign up for a 4-week drawing series, a 6-week ceramics series — or BOTH! Registration is FREE, but required for capacity purposes.

ART is aimed at using the creative process for participants to be inspired, relax, express themselves as they want, and have a finished work of art to reflect upon with pride. ART’s clay and drawing classes allows participants to feel connected, to feel like they belong to a larger community of learners — and through art, to feel like they can share their stories.

ART is led by artist, teacher, and military spouse, Susan Mentrak. Susan is a ceramic artist and illustrator born and raised in Ohio. She graduated with a degree in Illustration from The Columbus College of Art and Design. She devotes herself to learning, developing, and sharing her expertise in clay and drawing.

Spring 2026 art classes will be held on (dates coming soon!) from 5:30pm-7:30pm at the Canton Museum of Art 1001 MARKET AVENUE NORTH | CANTON, OH 44702
