TEACH THE KIDS CLASSES TOGETHER
We Specialize In A Step For Step by Step Program!
The kids’ program is an extension of the adult drawing and painting program. The same concepts, but with an emphasis on “fun”. The children’s program has been an enormous success with over 100 kids in two different locations. (metro academic studies during the school year and in our studio). The success of the children’s program is due to the art teachers all going through the adult program, making it easy to teach the same concepts that the adults learn.
