Information About Our Weekly Classes

Our art classes are like private lessons in a group setting. The teacher walks around the room and helps you master new techniques and complete your project. It's a fun and safe way to socialize, create and improve your skills in becoming an artist. We offer very fair rates and have over 10 teachers with all different styles to ensure your teacher is the right fit for you. 

We sign students up monthly. A typical month is $139.61 (including tax) and that gets you, four 3-hour classes. Once a week you'll come with a project of your choosing to work on. The teacher will make their way around the room to show you new skills and give advice on where to go next with your painting or project.

There are 4-12 students in a classroom (depending on the size of the studio). We have tables, easels, chairs to use although supplies are not included. All students get a 10% discount on supplies if they wish to purchase from our retail side.

If you are a new student and are unsure what to bring for class, no worries! The teachers or staff can help you pick out supplies and even a project to work on the first day. Beginners are welcome in almost any class.

There are snack machines, pop machines and a coffee area with seating in case you need a break or are taking multiple classes. We also supply drying racks for your projects if you wish to leave them for the next class.

Information About Kids & Teens Classes

Kids & Teens classes are an amazing afterschool activity. If you know a student who has got some skills in art and would like some guidance on what to learn next, this is the place for them. All students are working on a project of their choosing while the teacher coaches them on new skills and techniques to practice. Drawing, painting, colouring, and markers are usual mediums in our classes.

​

We sign students up monthly. A typical month costs $88.64 and that gets the student, four 2-hour classes. Once a week (same time, same day) the student will bring their project and supplies and take on lessons to improve their skill.

​

There are 4-12 students in a classroom (depending on the size of the studio). We provide tables, easels, and chairs to use although supplies are not included. All students get a 10% discount on supplies if they wish to purchase from our retail side.

 

If you are a new student and are unsure what to bring for class, no worries! The teachers or staff can help you pick out supplies and even a project to work on the first day. Beginners are welcome.

 

There are snack machines, and pop machines with seating in case you need a break or are taking multiple classes. We also supply drying racks for your projects if the student wishes to leave them for the next class.

​

Our age range is from 8-17 years old. We have 1.5-hour classes for the younger students and 2-hour classes for around ages 10+.

 

We recommend gift cards for the students in case they need any extra supplies during their classes.
