Youth Art Classes
It's never too early to build imagination, creativity, and a love for art! Our youth classes range from babies to tweens and are led at an age-appropriate level by artist educators. Participants will learn about artwork in the permanent collection and temporary exhibitions, as well as new materials and techniques with hands-on art projects in the studios. All supplies are provided.
Classes aren’t just for kids. Check out our calendar of Adults Classes & Studios.

All classes, including My Grownup and Me, Preschool, Homeschool, and Afterschool Art, are taught by our talented art instructors and inspired by works that can be seen at the museum.
