Do you have a budding artist in the family? Give their creativity room to grow in this engaging after-school art class designed specifically for students in Grades 1–4!

Each class is thoughtfully structured to balance artistic freedom with meaningful learning. We begin with a free-draw session, allowing students time to warm up, express themselves, and get their creative energy flowing. From there, we dive into the world of art history by introducing an “Artist of the Day”—a renowned or influential figure whose work provides the inspiration for that day’s project.

Students will explore various artistic movements, mediums, and styles from around the world, helping them gain a broader understanding of art and its cultural significance. With guidance and encouragement, they’ll create their own artwork inspired by the featured artist, putting their personal spin on classic techniques while developing new skills and confidence.

The class wraps up with group clean-up, an age-appropriate art discussion that encourages observation and expression, and a fun “draw-a-long” activity to reinforce what they’ve learned in a playful and supportive way.

More than just an art class, this is a space where young artists can explore, reflect, and connect with the wider world through creativity. It’s a perfect opportunity for self-expression, experimentation, and cultivating a lifelong appreciation for the arts and global perspectives.
