1. Does my child need
to be "talented" or "love art" to enroll in a KidzArt®
class or camp?
NO! KidzArt®
classes and camps are open to all children, ages 6-12, of all skill
levels. We also have Preschool classes for children 3 1/2 to 5 years of
age. The philosophy of KidzArt®
is that all children can learn to express themselves visually and our
curriculum allows anyone to acquire basic drawing skills and techniques.
Beginners will learn how easy it is to draw and advanced students will
continue to explore their creativity in a supportive, non-competitive
environment.
2.
How long are classes?
Classes are usually 1 hour in length for school age children (ages 6 to
12) and for our adult and senior programs. Pre-school programs (ages 3 1/2
to 5) are 45 minutes in length. Holiday workshops and camps are 2 to 3
hours in length. Sessions are generally scheduled in 4, 8 and 12
week blocks.
3.
Will you accept age 5 or Kindergarten students in regular
classes or camps?
Yes, provided they can sit and focus for 1-2 hours at a time.
4.
Are discounts available for pre-payment of multiple
sessions or family enrollments?
Yes. Please see the class registration form or contact us for more
information.

will teach KidzArt ®
and what is the teacher/student ratio?

What drawing mediums are used?
We use artist-quality materials. Prismacolor markers, chalk and oil
pastels and watercolor pencils are used most frequently. Charcoal, art
stix and watercolor are also used. Drawings are completed on acid-free,
archival-quality paper.
7. What is an art project?
Art projects
are typically 3-D artwork and may include: scratch art, sand art,
marbleizing, collages, Sculpey clay and more …….
8. Do drawing and art projects change from session
to session?
Back to Top
Yes, drawing and art projects change regularly. It's highly unlikely
that a student would ever draw the same project twice. Some students have
taken classes for years and drawings are always fresh and new.
9. Are materials included in the price?
All materials required to complete drawings and projects are included in the cost.
10. What should my child bring to KidzArt®
classes, camps or workshops?
For classes your child should dress in normal school day clothing. For
camps, your child should be dressed comfortably in play clothing. Send
along a sweatshirt or jacket if weather requires. We will provide all the
necessary art materials so they just need to bring their imaginations!
11. What if my child gets hungry during the
camp session?
We will provide a nutritious snack during the mid-morning break. If your
child needs extra food, please send it along in a bag marked with his or
her name.

camp sessions?
No.
