Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have art classes for children?
Yes. Youth classes are held after school Monday – Thursday & on Saturdays. During the summer, we offer a great variety of camps for Pre/K through Grade 12. Mom & tot art classes start at age 2, independent classes start at age 4.
How long are your classes?
Classes generally run 8-12 weeks, with quarterly terms starting in September, January, April & June. Adult art classes are offered Monday – Saturday with start times of 9am, 12:30pm, & 6:30 (with some variations). In addition, there are several workshops to choose from during each semester.
What is the difference between a class and a workshop?
Our classes follow similar formatting: 8-12 weeks in length, 2-3 hours in class each week. On the other hand, workshops might be anywhere between 3-6 hours all done on one day. Workshops may also span 1 or more days, 6 hours daily (for example). Lengthy workshops are most common in the summer months.
