One of the
most unique features about ToleTown is the fact that
we have an online
decorative painting studio where members
come to learn
and paint together! Our classroom is an HTML
environment allowing
teachers to bring in step by step
illustrations
and students to interact together in real time.
For students who
can't make the scheduled class
or who
prefer to paint on their own, we provide downloadable/printable
pattern packets
including complete instructions, line drawing, color photo,
a log of the
live class and all step-by-step illustrations provided during classtime!
Class materials,
logs and projects are all archived for future study and
enjoyment in
our Self-Study classroom. You'll also find our Self-Study
filing cabinet
contains many downloadable/printable practice
worksheets, skill
builders, tutorials and more!
Aside from the
classes and learning opportunities offered within our cozy
"village",
members enjoy many other outstanding benefits, including:
A free homepage perfect for sharing your bio and favorite
photos with your
family and friends!
A web based email account with a personalized
YOURNAME@toletown.com
email address!
"The Gallery" where members are featured in virtual "exhibits"
displaying photos
of painted works, along with an "Artist Profile"
sharing painting
history, ambitions and goals!
"The Malt Shop"- our private chat room where a cup
of conversation
is available 24 hours a day!
"Cyberpalette", our quarterly ezine containing special projects,
artist's interviews,
designer spotlights, product reviews,
member highlights
and other goodies!
"Town Talk", our member's only email list where "neighbors"
become friends
and friends enjoy being "neighbors".
"Holiday House", a fun place where members share holiday
craft ideas,
recipes, family traditions and more!
Our
"Secret Pal Program" gives those that participate
the opportunity
to become better acquainted.
