Art Start offers children a variety of activities to explore the art of great artists as they create masterpieces of their own. Each art class focuses on one artist whose style can be explored by children in a variety of media. With four unique classes devoted to an artist, Art Start encourages children to experiment and express their creativity while learning and having fun. Try one or try them all!
Adapted to the California State Curriculum for Preschool Children, Art Start develops ready-for-school skills to help your child gain the most out of their art experience. In each class, children will create a variety of art projects, learn about an artist and learn a new element of art. They will also receive a take-home worksheet with the Art Start Characters to reinforce their new skill.
Every fun-filled class is different with a brand new set of projects in each! Take a look at some of Art Start's exciting mommy-and-me programs.
