About Our Classes
 

 

Classes are held in a fully equipped and renovated home basement art studio. Each 6 week session revolves around a specific theme, and builds on basic to more advanced art principles. A wide variety of artist grade materials are used to complete projects. Individual attention is given to students so they are working at or above their age level. Classes typically have a maximum of 8-10 students.
