Beginning Art

Let's Nurture Your Child's
Love of Art While
Teaching Them New Skills!

Welcome to Beginning Art: Whether your child has completed Introduction to Art or is just getting started, Beginning Art is the perfect next step to help them continue growing as a young artist. This dynamic two-year 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 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. By the end of their second year in Beginning Art, they’ll have a solid creative foundation and the confidence to take on the exciting challenges of our four-year comprehensive art curriculum.

✨ If you want your child to pursue art with purpose and passion, we’re here to help them take that first step — and everyone after.

Beginning Art is Perfect For:

We welcome students aged 7–8 years old who are eager to explore their creativity—whether they’re just beginning their artistic journey or already love making art. This program is perfect for children who thrive with hands-on learning, enjoy experimenting with new materials, and are excited to discover fresh ways to express themselves.

If your child benefits from encouragement, gentle guidance, and a structured environment, they’ll feel right at home here. And if you’re a parent who wants to see your young artist grow in both technical skills and creative confidence, this program offers exactly that. We support every student in a caring, celebratory space—where effort is valued, creativity is nurtured, and progress is proudly shared.

This curriculum will keep your child engaged and sparks their creativity by inviting imaginative exploration and hands on making. Your child’s growth is celebrated through continuous improvement, acknowledging each milestone they achieve.
