WHY OUR PROGRAM?
Taught by professional art teachers
(Not parents / volunteers)
Our teachers are art professionals with years of teaching experience, that have received training in our program. Children are provided with gentle guidance and support at all stages of the creative process.
Each student makes an original artwork
(not a variation of someone else's)
Within the main theme of the class, students create original compositions from scratch. We set no limits to their imagination!
Customizable for your school
We can make as many classes as the school needs, and focus on the subjects you prefer - all at an affordable price. We provide art materials, too!
MAIN ART PROGRAM
An art enrichment program we offer during school hours.
Tradition & Antiquity
GRADES 1-3
We’ve noticed that kids in grades K-3 see the world just like the ancient artists: in their work, they use flat silhouettes, bright colors, symbols, and almost no 3D. We based our K-3 curriculum on art of Antiquity and traditional arts and crafts from around the Globe.
Intro to Realism
GRADES 4-6
Children in grades 4-6 lean toward realistic representation.They are interested in mastering such concepts as shading and perspective. With them, we study art periods that have developed great realistic tradition: the Middle Ages, Renaissance, and the Victorian era.
The Modern Art
GRADES 7-8
High schoolers care most about self-expression, just as the Modern artists did! We explore various ways to deliver an artist's message through the art of Modernism and Post-Modernism, as well as contemporary pop culture and Manga.

Art Fundamentals
GRADES K-2 & 3-6
Drawing a robot? A mermaid? A scene from Minecraft? No problem, we will teach you how to draw them alike, or create your own original world and populate it with characters.
All skills necessary for successful self-expression can be mastered at this early age. We wrap technical challenges into exciting creative tasks, and kids learn a lot while just having fun! The curriculum combines various exciting hand-on activities with a kids-friendly introduction to different art styles and epochs.
Comic and Manga
GRADES 3-6
Explore the exciting world of Comic & Manga art!
Learn to draw people, animals, and imaginary creatures, master
gestures and emotions, draw landscapes and buildings in perspective, and make your own comic!
The class consists of a basic overview lecture of various topics - composition, color choice, panelling & storytelling, and anatomy practice - as well as additional one-on-one tips and critiques on the current works-in-progress.

Maria and Svetlana, the founders at this program have made a positive impact at our school. They provide art lessons for grades 3-8. They are always on time and highly organized. Our needs were different than at other schools, and they were happy to accommodate our needs. I liked that they were able to work with each grade level to come up with lessons that would correlate to curriculum, and also appease teachers. I also like that they are professional and prices are competitive with other providers in the area. Last but not least, they are highly knowledgable about their subject matter (art). I feel that they are able to provide quality lessons due to their deep understanding of art and how to produce art. They don't just teach students how to make art, they encourage students to produce a highly individual piece that is indicative of their inner creativity. They are also able to break down a lesson into parts so that students can follow instructions. I like that they provide detailed, yet simplified instructions during each lesson so that students can see the process and where to lesson is going. I look forward to continued collaboration at our school!
