Why is Art Is More good for your child?
Fun, unique and professional.
With deep knowledge in art, as well as teaching and learning, our artist-educators create uniquely engaging experiences that inspire creativity, self-expression and confidence.
​
Empowering every child.
Sometimes we hear children (and adults) say "I can't dance!" or "I can't draw it right!" In Expressive Arts, we celebrate diversity by embracing different cultures, learning styles and ways of creating. We empower children to find their voices, share their stories, and connect with the world around them. There is no good or bad, only express.
​
No extra logistical burden.
The workshops take place during the school day, meaning that you just need to drop your child off as usual, and they get to participate in something extraordinary on an ordinary day.​​
