Are you local to Clinton, MA? Do you have an elementary or middle school child with an interest in art? If you do, and if you agree that exposure to the arts and artistic activity is important to childhood development, we would love to hear from you.

Actual class content will depend on the needs and skill levels of the students that sign up, but we plan to provide a range of classes. We are committed to keeping the student-teacher ratio low enough to allow for individualized attention and instruction tailored to the student's interest and skill level.

Instruction will be provided in a variety of media as age appropriate - drawing in pencil, charcoal, conte, and pen&ink, and painting in watercolor, tempera, gouache, and/or acrylic. We are also planning to provide instruction in digital photography depending on interest. We plan to cover 1st grade through 12th.

We are working closely with a very experienced art educator, Sharon Carloni, who teaches elementary art ed in the Hudson Public Schools. We are providing a day program running from July 6 through August 21st, divided into morning and afternoon sessions, each session lasting for 1 week. Morning classes will run 9 AM to noon, and afternoon classes will run 1 PM to 4 PM. Separate classes will run for elementary (1st - 5th grade) and middle school (6th - 8th). Tuition for the base program is $85/week, or $150 for full day (morning and afternoon). For an extra fee, we will accept extended hours, 8:30 AM to noon and 1 PM to 5:30 PM, as needed. Art supplies for class use are included, except for high school students, who will be provided with a supply list. They will be expected to buy their own supplies, either through us or another source.

If you have questions, or would like to enroll your kid(s), please don't hesitate to contact us. We will send forms for you to complete, along with additional information. Note that we provide a discount for families enrolling more than 1 child.

Classes are starting soon, so don't delay!
