Art students learn a variety of drawing and painting methods while exploring Realism, Pop Art, Impressionism, Cartooning, Anime, and more. Students thrive in an educational and creative environment where they are encouraged to develop and explore their imagination and creative expression. Art students improve and gain new skills with every session they attend.

Art classes meet once a week.
Art kits are available for purchase at class.

Each session, art students improve existing skills and learn new drawing and painting techniques.

Art students advance from Young Picasso to Young Rembrandt to Young Michelangelo to Young Da Vinci to Young Monet to Young Dali to Young Van Gogh to Young Chagall to Young Renoir. Students receive a plaque and certificate.

Perfect attendance is rewarded at the end of each session. Art students missing a lesson may take a make-up lesson and still receive the perfect attendance award! To make up a missed lesson, students take 2 classes back-to-back prior to the end of the session. Students may take the class prior to their normal class time, or take the class following their normal class time. Please see the instructor for more information.
