Yes!
I want to take this course! | Learn the basics of theatrical makeup and face painting for fairs,
fun, and holidays!

old to use their imagination and actually wear a unique work of art.
It's also a good way to raise funds at a local fair, church, or community
function.
In this course you'll learn both how to make cute designs and to change
the look of the face using theatrical techniques. We also cover safety
and troubleshooting issues such as allergies and keeping a sanitary work
