School-Aged Classes

Most school-aged classes begin with the fundamentals of a medium. TeachArt2Me teaches beginners techniques before creative expression. We believe that without technical knowledge one can encounter frustration in expressing oneself creatively. Older school-aged children and children who have command of the medium will find our level two classes incorporate both freedom and creativity with technical support needed to ensure success.
