Classes / Workshops
Art Exquisite
Does your child love to draw but sometimes feel unsure about their abilities?
Many young artists struggle with self-doubt or get stuck thinking their art has to be “perfect.”
That’s why we created the Fearless Creativity Workshop—a weekly class where kids can freely explore sketching, coloring, illustrating, doodling, and even scribbling in a supportive environment. Every Tuesday from 4:15–6:15 PM, they’ll try new mediums, play with ideas, and discover that mistakes are part of the creative process.
With guidance and encouragement, students gain confidence, overcome fear, and develop both skill and joy in making art.
