Happy Picasso is a delightful art studio that sparks creativity in young minds. The studio offers a…read morevibrant and engaging environment where children can explore a diverse range of art styles, from classic painting and drawing. What sets Happy Picasso apart is its emphasis on fun and exploration. The instructors are incredibly patient and encouraging, guiding children to express themselves freely while introducing them to new concepts and techniques. The studio's use of bright colors, whimsical themes, and playful projects ensures that every session is a joyful and enriching experience. Whether your child is a budding artist or simply enjoys getting their hands messy, Happy Picasso is an excellent place to nurture their creativity. The studio provides a safe and supportive space for children to experiment, learn, and discover the magic of art. They are also very pretty flexible with rescheduling classes. They tried everyday to accommodate our schedule for another make up class. I like that they also have a recorded class if we can't make it in person to make up a class

He usually gravitates towards the sensory bins, as they change weekly as well. I highly recommend Start the Art for any little hands that want to get artsy.

My almost 7-year-old has been attending this school since she was 5. Why? Because she genuinely…read moreenjoys it. She loves that she is never bored. Every week she learns something new: new styles, materials, and techniques. Sometimes they focus on painting, other times on sculpture or different forms of art. Katia and Sara have both been her teachers, and she has felt happy and supported with all of them. Like with many activities at this age, it took a couple of weeks for her to fully adjust and feel familiar with the environment but consistency made a big difference. As parents, we appreciate seeing her come home excited and proud of what she created. It is easy to notice how much she has progressed over time and we get very excited when we see her project. We also appreciate the communication style of the school. They provide a high-level overview each week of what the kids will be working on, which keeps parents informed without overwhelming us with too much information. On the administrative side, tuition payments and renewals are simple, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful whenever we have had questions or needed help resolving any mistakes on our part. We also love the location. Depending on the day and who is with me, it is easy to wait nearby at the library, a coffee shop, or a restaurant while class is in session.
