Children’s Art Classes
Our children’s art classes are designed to introduce young artists to the fundamentals of creativity in a fun, supportive environment. Taught by professional artists, students explore a variety of techniques while learning the building blocks of art making, including color, composition, and working with different materials.
We offer a wide range of classes for kids, including drawing, painting, ceramics, and mixed media, with programs available throughout the year. Whether your child is just beginning or already loves to create, our classes help build confidence, encourage self-expression, and develop strong foundational art skills through hands-on learning and guided instruction.

Children’s Art Camps & Vacation Programs
Keep your child engaged and inspired during school breaks with our children’s art camps and vacation programs. Each day is filled with hands-on creative activities, including drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture, and performing arts—giving kids the opportunity to explore new materials, express themselves, and build confidence through art.
Our structured programs are led by experienced teaching artists who guide students through fun, age-appropriate projects in a supportive, studio-based environment. Whether your child is new to art or already loves to create, these programs are designed to encourage imagination, develop artistic skills, and foster collaboration with peers.
We offer art camps during February, April, and Summer school breaks, with programs running from 9AM to 4PM. Extended day options are available for added convenience. We also offer one-day holiday art programs on MLK Day and Veterans’ Day, providing a flexible and enriching option for families.
