Website Critique 2

Hyde Park Art Center

Overall, I enjoyed the website for the Hyde Park Art Center giving it an "A" rating (I think I am an easy grader because I have given out a lot of A's so far). I didn't know much about the art center and from the website, I felt inspired to take a class there and even donate...I know, pretty impressive. It seems like a great organization and the website effectively portrayed it's philosophy. Right from the home page, I knew it was an exceptional art center from the fonts chosen, the color schemes and the interesting photos. I also liked how from the home page I was able to find out the organization's mission statement, events, exhibits, discussions, classes and where they are located. Overall, it is very easy to navigate and I really appreciate that aspect in a website.

After diving in more into this website, I found it fun and interesting to read about the teachers, the classes and the exhibits. I knew some of the teachers and felt that the bios were nicely presented, well written and I enjoyed seeing some of their works. As I stated earlier, I also enjoyed reading about the classes enough to possibly sign up for one soon.

The only thing I would change is the fact that you have to scroll down really far to read all the information. This is probably more of a personal preference, but I like all of the information/copy to be on one page.
