Each week, students will explore exciting themes and projects while experimenting with a wide variety of art materials—such as watercolor and acrylic paints, oil and chalk pastels, clay, collage, printmaking, and more.
At this age, art is not just about the final product—it’s about the process. Through open-ended projects, students are encouraged to explore their creativity, make artistic choices, take creative risks, and discover their unique artistic voice. Our classes nurture imaginative thinking and storytelling, helping children express big ideas and emotions through visual narratives and personal creations.
In addition to sparking imagination, our signature art projects support the development of fine motor skills, confidence, and social-emotional development in a fun group environment. Sharing materials, taking turns, and offering kind feedback all become part of the experience.
