Curriculum Designed for Success Through teaching Children’s Art Classes for over 20 years our founder leveraged proven techniques and her own professional experience to develop, then refine, a custom, age-based, art education curriculum. Our students have demonstrated excellence in the classroom, with many honor students having graduated from our programs. Our students achieve and excel in art too, with several having earned art scholarships and have participated in significant art shows.

Ms. Barbara has been wonderful! She is an encouraged and talented teacher and is helping bring out my daughter’s gifts as an artist. We are grateful for her dedication and willingness to help! I highly recommend her classes! – Julie B. I have never ever met teachers that were so well versed in art media.
