Upcoming Art Classes
When a child masters a skill,
their imagination takes flight.
Young elementary students need fun extracurricular activities but they also need more time to PLAY, the freedom to get MESSY, and the chance to be outside in NATURE! Tiny Art Class is a weekly two hour after-school art class for Kinder - 5th grade designed to fulfill those needs. Class takes place in Griffith Park, surrounded by redwoods, hiking trails, and all kinds of beautiful tiny creatures.
The children begin each class with free play, before participating in a structured art project. After clean-up the children will have time leftover to continue with self-directed drawing or play with their friends.

Early elementary art should give children a clear sense of the basic elements of art but it should also be FUN! In our Tuesday class for K-3rd graders, your child will learn about color, line, shape, texture, and space through exciting and dynamic projects: sculpt a donut, create a spider web installation, design Tiny Art Trading cards, use shaving cream for printmaking! Our class format allows for children of all skill levels to work side by side, learning from each other and taking joy from the process, not just the outcome.
Thursdays: Advancing Artists, 3rd-5th grade,
3p-5p, April 9th - May 28th
$495 / $455 per child for siblings for 8 class session
It’s not flashy; it’s foundational.
Line, shape, color, balance: these are the building blocks for developing advanced drawing and painting skills. Drawing and painting well doesn’t require innate talent or some elusive ability that cannot be learned. Artists learn to draw and paint well by developing their observational drawing skills and an understanding of color theory, as well as advancing their ability to create dynamic compositions. Our Thursday class offers children a chance to do just that through drawing, painting, and printmaking.
