Unleash your child’s creativity in Drawing Explorers—a fun, skill-building art class designed for children ages 7 and up. Over the course of four weekly sessions, students will learn fundamental drawing techniques in a supportive, engaging environment that encourages exploration and confidence.

Each class includes warm-up activities, guided instruction, and plenty of time for personal creativity. Students will build skills in line, shape, texture, value, shading, and composition using materials such as graphite, colored pencils, markers, and more. They'll practice drawing from real life and their imagination while developing their own artistic voice.

The session concludes with a Mini Art Show during the final class, where students will showcase their finished pieces for family and friends. It’s a celebration of creativity, growth, and artistic expression!

No prior drawing experience is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to create!
