Kids' Art Classes
Cultivating Creativity!
Here at MWCA, our goal is to give you and your children the tools to enjoy a lifetime of art.
We are a technique-based teaching arts center. You can be assured of visual arts classes taught by master artists who are also awesome and experienced teachers. You will leave our courses, not just with a painting or a bowl, but with the knowledge and skills to continue a lifetime of life-enriching (and stress-reducing!) creativity!
Please read our behavior policy at the bottom on this page - thanks!

Policy - please read
If discipline or behavior issues arise, at MWCA’s teacher’s discretion, we may request that a parent or other responsible adult attend class and assist with the student’s instruction. Our art classes are a step above what is commonly offered and are technique-based. Very often, fine art supplies and tools are used (not craft-level). As such, concentration and attention to instruction is needed; disruption cannot be an on-going concern. When necessary, MWCA reserves the right to refund any unused class fees and suspend the student from further participation. Students are expected to behave in an age-appropriate manner, sit in a classroom setting, take instruction and handle art supplies and equipment with care and respect. Thank you for understanding.
