Calling all budding artists age 10 and older.
Come and express yourself, in a real studio environment. The creative fun begins Tuesday, Jan. 20 at US ArtQuest’s six-week After School Arts Program (ASAP) each Tuesday from Jan. 20 to Feb. 24 from 3:15 to 5:15 p.m., this program encourages youth and young teens to explore their unique creativity through drawing, painting, sculpture and more.
This is a high-quality arts program, tuition-based and developed according to the best practices in education and the arts. USArtQuest staffs talented professional teachers, instructors and artists who are kid-friendly.
ASAP provides students with an exceptional learning environment that extends beyond the project or the materials. While most public schools have cut back in art education, this 6 week session tickles the fancy and engages the imagination, while the students learn about real art techniques – using real art materials! Each class concentrates on a specific media such as drawing, painting or sculpture, and maximizes the fun that the various art-forms provide young minds. Your child will feel pride as they complete art they can actually exhibit at home.
The tuition cost is $150 ($25 per session) and a second child in the same family is $125. Sign up online here or call 800-766-0728 or 734-562-2662 Monday or Tuesday to enroll you child right away.
