Brand new to Young Masters Art Studio! We're now offering a semester-based, comprehensive art program for students interested in covering a compendium of subjects and art mediums during a semester.

The program includes artistic enhancing skills for children of all developmental levels. It provides opportunities for each student to use his/her unique abilities in cultivating creative expression, building peer relationships, and fostering self-esteem. Children gain a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of art and their application in a variety of art mediums and disciplines of drawing, painting, and design.
