Art Classes for children 7 to 9 years old

This is a great age for Art Classes. The kids from 7 – 9 are not self-conscious yet about how their art work “should look.” They are very open to ideas and information. Learning how to draw and feeling confident about it will take them safely beyond the age where most of us decided “we do not know how to draw” or about 10 years old.

In this class, we have a good balance of drawing from imagination and drawing from observation. Drawing from imagination is very important at this age and teaching them a few art concepts that can be applied to their drawings will open their creativity and imagination. We teach drawing from observation and help students to “see” and notice details that will help them to translate it to paper.

We teach about painting in this class including the proper use of brushes, color mixing using watercolors and tempera paint and other mediums such as soft and oil pastels. This class builds confidence and individual creativity in a guided but fun artistic environment.

When can I enroll in a class?
You can enroll anytime as long as we have space in the class. The tuition for the first month will be prorated based on your enrollment date.

What does the monthly tuition cover?
The tuition covers FOUR art classes that meet once per week. There is a quarterly registration fee every September, December and March for child and teen classes. For adult classes, there is an annual registration fee.
Some homeschool classes are marked as bi-weekly and meet twice a month.

When do the classes end?
During the school year we offer on going classes from late-August through June. You can join any time. You can cancel and stop payments s by notifying us by the 15th of the month to avoid the next monthly charge.
During the summer, we offer one-week summer camps and weekly classes in sets of 4 or 6 sessions.

What if I miss a class? If you need to miss a class, you can make up your missed class by attending another class as long as you are currently enrolled. You can schedule your make-up class using our app or via de Student's Portal. Call us if you need assistance with a make-up class. Please be aware there is ABSOLUTELY NO PRORATING NOR REFUND for missed classes. "Missed" classes cannot be used as a "class credit" for the next session.

Are materials included?

Testimonials

  • "Our instructor is not only a professional art teacher ( as is every instructor we've encountered so far) she's also a working artist who regularly exhibits her work. That's what makes this place so different, and so great. This is not arts and crafts time; this is high quality instruction that teaches and hones technical skills."
    Mary Ann Sharma. Google review.
  • "My daughter has been attending classes here for the past three years. She loves it! They have taught her so many techniques not available to her in the standard art class at school."

Do you love art?

How many times have you heard an adult say that they “do not have an artistic bone in their body” or “I can’t even draw a straight line”?

Most of us stop drawing around 10 years of age when we become self-conscious and very critical of ourselves. As Pablo Picasso said, “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” The good news is that learning how to draw is like learning to ride a bicycle or playing an instrument; you can learn and we can teach you.
