Art Foundation 

Grades 1 - 12   |   2 hour Class   |   All Skill Level

​

Art Foundation Program is open to students from Grades 1-12 at any skill level, from beginners to more advanced young artists. 2-hour session provides a flexible structure where students choose between two class pathways:

​

  • Art Creative – a theme-based exploration of materials, artists, and concepts
​
  • Art Technical – a structured focus on drawing and painting skills, materials, and art theory

​

Though taught in a group setting, each student progresses at their own pace with individualized support from instructors. This allows us to meet students where they are — encouraging artistic growth, confidence, and personal expression.

​

Students may register monthly or by semester, depending on their schedule and commitment level. Both options allow for consistent development and connection to the creative community at Art Village.

​​​​​​

Year-End Art Show

At the end of each school year, all Art Foundation students are invited to participate in our Annual Art Show!​

​

Registration 

Registration for the Art Creative Class is available on both a monthly and semester basis. The monthly option provides students with increased flexibility in selecting their class days and frequency of attendance. In contrast, semester registration entails a commitment for several months, allowing students to focus on long-term projects throughout the semester, which may vary in duration.

 

Please be advised that registration for Art Technical classes is only offered on a semester basis.
