These are our year-round children's lessons. They cover the basics and it is designed for beginners but offers a great deal of challenges to improve your child's art skills.

The kids get to explore several mediums in this class including, but not limited to:

Graphite Pencils, Colored Pencils, Watercolor Paint, Watercolor Pencils, Tempera Paint, Oil Pastels, Chalk Pastels, and Charcoal.

The Class schedule is designed to ensure children get the most of their time with us. The same project is offered three days a week for those with busy schedules.

Our homeschooling classes are usually quite small, but we find it best that way to ensure each child gets their necessary individual needs met! Each child's personal interests Are taken into account and incorporated into the class projects alongside projects selected by the instructor. This gives the children creative freedom, while still learning new skills and techniques. We find this approach of focusing on their strengths and valuing their thoughts, and opinions helps the development of self-confidence and makes working on improving weaknesses to be a little easier of a task.
Homeschool lessons are offered once a week and purchased by the semester. 

1st Semester - Mid September - Mid January

2nd Semester - Mid January - Mid May
 

Practice makes Perfect!

Open studio is time set aside when the full Studio or a portion of the studio is available for artists to come and bring their visions to life in a creative space. Artists are able to use our supplies and resources for a set rate based on the amount of time stayed. One 11"x14" canvas is included in the cost of a two hour period, any additional canvases must be paid for but will receive 50% off if being used in the studio.

This is NOT a step-by-step course. Instead, students are encouraged to work independently to improve their skills, Experiment with new mediums, or build a portfolio at their own pace. An Instructor is present though for any questions or guidance you may need. 
For classes with a higher level of guidance, we recommend instructed lessons or private lessons.
