Orange Easel Fall Art Classes

Are you raising an artist? We want to help! Orange Easel exists to provide a space for creative children to learn new art techniques, connect with others, and grow as artists. Our studios offer developmental, weekly art classes for Pre-K through 12th grade. In our classes and camps, we brainstorm ideas, learn new techniques, practice a bunch, fix mistakes, solve problems, and work to complete our composition. Our goal is always LEARNING. This creation process has VALUE regardless of the resulting artwork that goes home.
