About the Class

This class is designed for young artists looking to build foundational skills and explore different materials, styles, and techniques. Each month focuses on a specific medium or theme, such as drawing, watercolor, mixed media, and more. This class aims to foster a love of the arts and encourage students to establish a personal artistic practice.

Curriculum builds progressively, allowing students to deepen their skills and confidence over time. The final month of each semester (December & May) is dedicated to preparing a project for our youth gallery exhibition.
