    Both of our children have been attending Drawn2Art Pasadena for several months now and they love it! Ms. Madalee, Ms. Lauren, and Ms. Lupe have been so kind and nurturing in sharing their knowledge and skills in drawing. My husband and I are very grateful for this wonderful experience for our children. Thank you for your genuine support and dedication in shaping the children's minds and creativity. We love you and we appreciate you so much! Keep up the great work!

    Both my daughters have been taking art classes at this studio for a few years now, and they absolutely love it!! You can also see it. Not only do the instructors provide a fun and loving environment, they also teach in a way that is receptive by the children. I'm also amazed at the art the kids are able to produce at the studio, it's like professional level. I would definitely recommend this place!! Every place needs a good manager to run it, this studio has a top notch one...we love Ms. Lauren :)

    If you are looking for a place to expand your artistic skills and creativity than Drawn2Art is the place to go. It teaches you a large variety of traditional art mediums and techniques from chalk pastels to oil paints, you learn how to master each skill with a well rounded curriculum. It is suitable for anyone interested in art regardless of experience. The teachers are not only helpful but extremely talented, they create an inviting atmosphere to learn and share ideas. Overall Drawn2Art is a place that encourages students to become the best artists they can be and will always leave with work that they can be proud of.

    My daughter has been coming to Drawn2Art for more than a year. She loves coming here. She has shown so much growth in her art skills, but most importantly she has fun doing it. The instructors are great. They are kind, supportive and patient with the kids. The studio manager, Lauren is very accommodating and flexible with changing schedule and makeup class. She always respond to my email or phone call quickly. Since the pandemic, they implemented strict safety guidelines and only allow 5-6 students per class so I feel safe sending my daughter there. Their summer camps is also great too. I highly recommend this place!

    Art/Work/Place has been an amazing experience for our family. Our 8-year-old has been in Mrs…read more Billy's class for over a year, and we knew it was something special when he came home and gave us a drawing lesson! 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.

They spend about 5 minutes going over some rules, and then it's just up to the kids to throw paint on the canvas.

I wish that they spent a few minutes giving the kids ideas on what to do and tips for what looks good. However, there was none of that....

Before the class starts, the instructor gives a clear demo, and throughout the session, there are screens showing techniques step-by-step, so kids can comfortably follow along and adapt at their own pace. Nothing feels difficult or intimidating. The instructor quietly walks around, making sure each child has what they need and offering support without interrupting their creative flow. They're attentive, calm, and truly professional. The pricing is a bit on the higher side, but totally worth it for the quality of instruction and support. Check for promotions or deals. Overall, it's a relaxed, well-organized space where kids can enjoy creating freely and parents can feel at ease. We had such a great experience and would definitely come back

Quite small so when I asked if there were more to see, I was led to the transportation design area. Both were quite small but interesting. Then I asked a random student if there were more art displays and that's when I hit the jackpot! He was gracious enough to take me on a guided tour of the campus to see illustrations and paintings from other student artists. Huge shout out to him if he ever reads this review for being so kind to take me around, a random stranger helping another stranger. I've been to many art galleries and museums all over the world and was really impressed. Students here are super talented and I applaud your work and passion to pursue your talents. He had key card access to all the floors so if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to see much. Was told that they do have public displays where you could purchase them. Free parking on campus and the exhibits close at 8pm. I had a fantastic time! Didn't take pictures of the student artwork since they were not for public display.

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.

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.
