This is KidzArt!

KidzArt offers unique art enrichment programs designed to help students of all ages enhance artistic skills and knowledge, build self-confidence and grow as creative thinkers and problem solvers.

Our team of highly qualified instructors is committed to providing students with an ongoing, educationally rich and highly engaging creative forum in which to explore a broad array of artistic styles and techniques and to experiment with professional artist materials.

The core KidzArt drawing-based curriculum has been developed by professional artists and educators to meet the National Visual Art Standards. KidzArt programs have benefited students for over 15 years and are currently offered in hundreds of communities in 27 states.

During each KidzArt session, students will

  • Produce original works of art.
  • Explore ways to problem solve by "thinking outside the box" and breaking down that which is complex into manageable pieces and parts.
  • Experiment with a wide variety of two and three dimensional artist quality mediums.
  • Enhance their knowledge of artists, art history, and cultural influences on art.
  • Practice focus and relaxation techniques.
  • Experience the joy and fun of the creative process!
