Kids Art Classes
We offer art classes for ages 2-10 and teen art classes forcusing on both drawing and printmaking for ages 11-14 to help build portfolios to apply to the local art highschools or to just hone their skills and develop their own voice.
Some of our classes focus on mediums from drawing, printmaking, ceramics to textiles and soft sculpture to process art classes for little ones and some on themes such as Animals or Under the Sea or Fairylands.
