School of Art

There's still time to register for Summer Class Offerings! (Registration Form)

Water Street Studios offers a community-based arts education program geared towards children, teens, adults and senior citizens - from beginners to experts. It is our philosophy that everyone from preschoolers to seniors can use art in their lives.

2_21_10cbb.jpgLetter from the Director of Education,
Hello All! Warmer weather has finally arrived, our one-year anniversary at 160 South Water Street is fast approaching, and I am happy to offer you the summer 2010 class booklet! I have seen many successes for the School of Art in the past year, and I am happy to watch it continue to grow and be an important part of our community. One of our biggest developments and my proudest accomplishment is the addition of mind, body, and wellness classes such as Tai Chi, Sign Language and Spanish. The School of Art is also pleased to offer new performance courses: Acting Fundamentals, Scene Study and the Advanced Art of Star Wars. Our impressive summer lineup offers something for everyone. See you around the studios!
