That alone says how much she enjoys it. We've seen her confidence, creativity, and love for drawing grow so much since she started. The teachers are patient, encouraging, and truly know how to inspire young children while helping them develop real artistic skills. She looks forward to every class and is always so excited to show us the beautiful artwork she creates. It's amazing to see what she's able to do at just four years old. We're so grateful to have found WCAAD and highly recommend it to any family looking for a fun, nurturing, and inspiring art program for their children.

Art Center at Night allows working professionals to take on their creative side at night through…read moretheir courses. I've taken art classes at community colleges before and I do notice a differance in the level of information, communication, and style at Art Center. I took a design and composition class and really do feel I was stretched but not uncomfortably so. The information my teacher provided was well commicated, easy to understand, and most importantly I was able to understand the underlying concepts of what I was learning and apply it to real world design problems. I really like how interactive and collabortative the environment feels. If you're looking for a creative outlet, ACN is a good option. They're expanding so maybe they will have more classes. The neat thing is that some of these courses can be used as credit towards your study if you're admitted into Art Center. Many people here use this as a springboard into Art Center.

But our daughter really enjoyed the classes. She went a total of 4 classes an hour in a half each and she made a total of 5 beautiful pastel paintings. Miss Amanda, is great with kids. She is nice friendly but can also be serious friendly when it comes to handling the kids. But she's never a mean serious. Thats something I liked because although they are there to have fun, they are also there to learn. She has a calm, gentle voice and I think that helps the kids focus and not get anxious. My daughter had so much fun going and she wants to go back. During the last 10 minutes of the class, they have an art showcase in which the teacher shows all kids and parents what they worked on and asks them what they liked most of their painting. I loved that! You drop of your child and come back 10 min before the class is over to pick them up. I would give them 5 starts but the monthly fee is higher than other places and thats the only downside. They are perhaps also better than other places. But I do believe their price should be a little more competitive. But in regards to the service and teaching, they get 5 stars from us.

The highlight of her day is going to art class with Lauren - this is not an exaggeration. At pickup the other day, she said, "Mom, I belong there". I mean - it doesn't get better than that.

Always a plus for parents) and the teachers are tremendous. They are the best - ten million stars.

I have been learning at Right Brain Academy of Art since I was six years old. Throughout 11 years,…read moreI noticed that the time and dedication Ms. Rebecca and Mr. Corey put into teaching is unmatched. They show genuine care and form relationships with all their students, making the learning experience personalized. They have a clear understanding of what they expect for the most growth in their students, keeping the class challenging and fun. From training students to set up still lifes with dynamic compositions to teaching color combinations, each and every project was treated with care, designed to push students to grow. Through these projects, I not only learned art techniques, but they also trained me to develop resilience and patience. I have grown as a person, and I use what I learn in their class in my daily life. When I became a senior in high school and started to apply to colleges, their support and guidance brought me to success. Ms. Rebecca and Mr. Corey knew the exact standard of a college portfolio, teaching me how to select and organize pieces. They continued to motivate me, dedicated to the development of my portfolio. In the end, I got into many prestigious art schools including RISD, ArtCenter, CalArts, Pratt, and Parsons. Words cannot express my appreciation for Ms. Rebecca and Mr. Corey. They made me the artist I am today. I feel ready to enter a new stage of my artistic career in college, knowing I will always have their support and invaluable advice. I have no doubt that every student will get the best art education and support at Right Brain Academy of Art.

I just got my son enrolled to the class too and after the first tryout class he already asked me if he could continue to go there with his sister. If you passed by the studio or see the entrance of all their advanced students artworks you will be amazed of how beautiful of those drawing. I highly recommend to others for this art school.

Our son is naturally quiet and shy, but Mrs. Billy has helped him build confidence by encouraging him to express his own ideas and interests in his artwork and we can't thank her enough for how that has helped him come out of his shell in the classroom and beyond! Mrs. Billy also takes the time after class to update us and offer insights and constructive feedback on his creative growth. Based on our experience, I'd advise parents to take negative reviews with a grain of salt. All the teachers and staff here are genuinely so nice and unlike programs that focus mainly on copying pictures, Art/Work/Place balances technical skill building with creativity, imagination, and play. As someone who works as a designer in the gaming industry and has an art background, I can honestly say they're teaching kids the right way to learn art. Our son is already excited to be back in the fall!

I have to say I'm disappointed in Ms Billy. Initially she seemed like a great teacher - as my son…read morehad positive feedback and seemed to enjoy the class. Gradually my son would come home sad and upset. At first, I brushed off his complaints as maybe he just had a random rough day. Today, I picked up my son and Ms. Billy complained about his projects and all kinds of stuff right in front of my son. My son came to the car crying feeling terrible about his artwork. I asked him several questions about what happened as I didn't want to make any rash judgements about the teacher. He explained that he felt that Ms. Billie was being mean to him and that he was really struggling with clay (it's a new skill for him). I asked if she helps him with his clay a little extra since he's obviously struggling more than the rest of the more experienced students (I'd think she'd spend a little extra time with him). He said no - she was drinking tea and when she came back he had made a snail project where its tongue broke off and couldn't put it back on. He said he destroyed it and my son said she made another mean comment to him: "ohh so you're breaking stuff, instead of making stuff". He was struggling to put on the tongue, which you didn't help him with. Ms. Billy told me it was Gary the snail which didn't go with the CA theme they're working on. Ok. My question is: how is one of your struggling students able to make an entire snail project without you noticing until he's that far along with it? Then, the tongue falls ogf of it, you make a comment to him about it being wrong, he destroys it, you make another comment to him about him about breaking things instead of making things. Ok. If she's going to drink tea instead of helping struggling students then she shouldn't be surprised about them struggling. He said she was helping the other students - not him so much. He also said he got up to grab a toothpick, and she said to him "you're disrupting the entire class" and he was embarrassed that all the kids stared at him. He wasn't being defiant but she keeps treating him as if he is. My son said he was really surprised at how mean Ms. Billy was treating him - he genuinely didn't know he was doing anything wrong, She did sound agitated when she was complaining to me about my son. I know my son - he's not a bad kid and he's super kind. I'm not just saying that because he's my son. He truly is. I'm the type of person that takes criticism well and I'm happy to help correct behavior when necessary. In this case, I really feel that Ms. Billy is not spending enough time with struggling students - in my sons case not understanding instructions according to her. I didn't appreciate her putting my son down in front of both my husband and I. Ms. Billy made it sound as if my son was being defiant - I can assure you my son is not defiant - he genuinely is just having a hard time with the project! He's asking for help from his teacher in his own 8 year old way. He just turned 8 by the way. Mrs. Elizabeth in the front is amazing on the other hand! Very helpful and kind lady.
