Express Yourself: Art Classes for Teens

Our outreach program, Wonderful World of Art, takes place at eight different communities. Choose one near you or come to our studio in Van Buren for Art-A-Rama, Teen Art or Wee Draw.

Summer art camps help your child develop character, learn valuable life skills, make new friends and discover new interests. As kids create art, they will explore ideas, learn arts vocabulary, and experiment with a variety of arts media. At the same time, they will reinforce skills such as problem solving, observation, and cooperation. Most of all, they will have fun!

The Center for Art & Education will offer a limited number of youth scholarships for the 2011 summer camps. For more information, contact them at 479.474.7767. Full payment is required to reserve your space.
