      Our program offers children from ages 5 to 18 weekly fine arts classes on weekends and weekday afternoons and evenings. We have a structured curriculum that includes such essential components as perspective, light and shadow, color theory, anatomy, and drawing and painting from still-life, portraiture and landscape. The student begins with personal step-by-step instruction and works up the ladder of skill development to take on more independent projects. As skill grows, the imagination is more gracefully expressed. 

      Our courses are not just designed for future artists. We also teach future leaders in science, medicine, law, engineering and business. We want our students to have confidence in their own visions and ideas in whatever career they pursue. 

      Our 2024-2025 Academic Year consists of 32 online classes from August 29, 2024 to May 18, 2025. (We are closed from 11/28/24 to 12/8/24 for Thanksgiving, from 12/26/24 to 1/5/25 for Winter Holidays, from 1/30/25 to 2/2/25 for Lunar New Year, and from 4/3/25 to 4/6/25 for Spring Break).

      You can change your class hours, transfer to another class, or make up missing classes during the same academic year without charge. The last available makeup date for the 2024-2025 academic year is May 15, 2025. There will be no credits or refunds after May 18, 20

      English will be the principal language of instruction.
