Young Rembrandts DRAWING/CARTOONING

Elementary learners are at the crucial time of development when they decide whether they’re good at something or not. This program provides the tools this age group needs to succeed at drawing. The program works because it’s not only hands-on and visual...it’s simply fun. Add to this our innovative guided instruction, topics that kids love and relate to, and instructors who know how to reach this group; we take kids from thinking they’re not ‘artists’ to knowing they can achieve this, and everything else, they put their minds to. New lessons every week.
