Rustic Square Art Studio art class is dedicated to all children who enjoy arts, crafts, and other creative activities full of imagination. Each lesson includes one primary art technique such as acrylics, tempera, watercolor, drawing (oil and soft pastels), collage, paper cutouts, mosaic, and printmaking (monoprint, linocut). Also included are semi-automatic techniques, such as frottage, grattage, decalcomania, assemblage, installation, modeling, carving, and sculpting (ceramic clay). We even do origami and sensory activities such as slime, kinetic sand, and play dough.
What’s Art Class for Kids?
American or European artists inspire each class. Each session includes one of the leading art techniques, such as painting, drawing, collage, watercolors, printmaking, modeling, and sculpting. We even do origami. The Rustic Square Art Studio offers weekly children’s art classes for children ages 5-12 and is designed for middle and elementary ages. Studies are ongoing, excluding the summer months (July and August). Students actively participate in learning all through art techniques by using their imagination and creativity. You may register for classes at any time in the semester (fall/winter, winter, spring, and spring/summer session) as long as the class is not yet full and the course starts a project.
