ABOUT THE
ART LEAGUE SCHOOL Founded in 1968, the Art League School seeks to develop Houston-area artists through its quarterly studio art classes and workshops. Each year, over 1,000 adult students of diverse backgrounds, skill levels, and ages enroll in over 100 classes and workshops annually at the Art League School. Led by professional artist instructors, classes and workshops take place in three fully equipped studio spaces where students work in painting, drawing, watercolor, printmaking, mixed media, collage, jewelry, and other media. To ensure individual attention and to accommodate varying skill levels, courses are maintained with a limited number of students. There are no prerequisites for enrollment and courses are offered at an affordable cost to allow broad access to anyone interested. Students also have access to exhibitions, lectures, public programs, and artist talks offered throughout the year to further their training as artists.

Cholla Memorial Scholarship Program Art League Houston tries to keep the cost of our programs as affordable as possible — but if you need help, we have scholarship assistance available each quarter. In honor of longtime Art League Houston instructor, Cholla, Art League now offers limited tuition assistance for classes and workshops to adult students who demonstrate financial need and an interest in visual art. Based on available funds and class size restrictions, applicants may be granted a tuition scholarship. Tuition assistance ranges from 25-90%. Scholarships are for one class or workshop per applicant per quarter with a maximum of two scholarships per year. A separate scholarship form must be submitted for each applicant and for each quarter. The application to apply for tuition assistance for the upcoming Fall 2015 will close mid-August. All applications must be submitted through our website at artleaguehouston.org/tuition-assistance.
