Most people feel overwhelmed at the thought of teaching art. With our art curriculum, you can confidently teach art, giving your students all the benefits of art and creativity.

Effective

Learn the fundamentals of art using the Classical Model of Education to gain a foundation. Then students will continue to improve long after the lesson is done.

Art Appreciation & Creation

History-based art lessons teach about different time periods and famous artists so children learn to appreciate AND create art.

For All Ages

With options for scaling the project up or down, our lessons work for a variety of skill levels. Once your children can hold a pencil, they’re ready for art.

Teaching art can feel overwhelming…

…but without art in education, students lose out on creative problem-solving skills, cultural understanding, and a whole lot of fun.

  • We understand that you want your children to have all the benefits of art and creativity in their education.
  • We also understand that if you’ve never taught art before, it can feel daunting.
  • We’ve researched state and national standards for art education and best practices among art teachers so we know what to teach.
  • We try out all our art lessons with a variety of children to ensure they’ll work well.
