Which weekly class is right for my child?

Our weekly age-based classes ensure that your child learns alongside their peers in an environment that is developmentally appropriate for them. Our classes are designed to not repeat any projects for however long your child is in the class. For example, if your child enrolls in Tiny Hands as soon as they turn 3, they will not repeat any projects in the two years they are able to take the class.

Tiny Hands (Ages 3-4)

Tiny Hands will encourage your child to learn new ways to create while developing a range of new skills. Tiny Hands students will learn many techniques while working with clay. Students will have the opportunity to learn how to draw and paint at the easel. Many of the projects in the Tiny Hands curriculum focus on building dexterity and control, such as building a paper sculpture, which will teach students how to tear and cut. Your child will grow as an artist through a carefully guided program that is age appropriate. This class meets for 45 minutes once per week and is limited to 6 students per class. Parents are welcome to sit with their child during class if they feel their child needs extra support.

Introduction to Art (Ages 5-6)

Your child will grow as an artist through a carefully guided program that introduces foundational art skills, tools, and vocabulary, and invites exploration across a variety of art media. They’ll gaining confidence through experimentation and creative decision-making. Every step is designed to encourage bold choices and allow your child to learn from processes. This program is built on the belief that every child is an artist in progress: we nurture curiosity, celebrate risk-taking, and guide students as they discover and develop new skills. This class meets for 60 minutes once per week and is limited to 10 students per class.

Beginning Art (Ages 7-8)

This dynamic program is designed to build your child’s confidence with a wide range of art tools while deepening their understanding of more advanced artistic skills and vocabulary. Through hands-on projects and creative exploration, your child will express themselves in new ways and develop a stronger grasp of key artistic concepts. They’ll work with a variety of materials and techniques in a supportive, inspiring environment that nurtures creativity, encourages discovery, and helps them thrive as a growing artist. This class meets for 75 minutes once per week and is limited to 12 students per class.

Art 1 (Ages 9 and up)

Art 1 is the foundation class of a four-year curriculum (comprising Art 1, Art 2, Art 3, and Advanced Art*), where your Art 1 student will embark on an exciting journey through monochromatic work that deepens their understanding of line, value, and texture. Projects will include ebony pencil portraits, charcoal still life, India ink design, and scratchboard art. Students will also study color theory in-depth and will utilize this knowledge to undertake color design projects. This class meets for 75 minutes once per week and is limited to 12 students per class. *Art 1 is the prerequisite for Art 2.
