Rick VanGogh Kids’ Art Program: A Saturday Creative Journey

Unleash your child’s inner artist with the Rick VanGogh Kids’ Art Program, a vibrant, three-Saturday monthly workshop designed for creators aged 5 to 10. Held in a spacious, inspiring studio environment, our program offers 14 young artists the chance to explore the world of fine art through a professional lens.

What We Do

Each session is a deep dive into the elements of art. We don’t just draw; we build, layer, and experiment. Our curriculum includes:

Dynamic Painting: Working with high-quality acrylics and watercolors.

Mixed Media & Collage: Learning the art of layering with cut-outs, textures, and found objects.

Sculpting: Hands-on 3D building to bring imagination off the page.

Classic & Modern Techniques: Exploring Portraits, Still Life, and Abstract Expressionism using oil and soft pastels.

The "Big Picture" Project: Contributing to a massive, collaborative mural that teaches kids how to work together as a creative community.

More Than Just Art

At Rick VanGogh, our goal is to use the brush and the pencil to build more than just a portfolio. Our program is designed to:

Boost Confidence: Every child is encouraged to find their unique "artistic voice" in a pressure-free, supportive environment.

Expand Horizons: We expose students to professional-grade materials and diverse styles they may not experience in a standard classroom.

Build Community: Small class sizes allow kids to make new art friends, share ideas, and feel a sense of belonging in our local creative circle.

The Full Experience

Your enrollment is all-inclusive! We provide all premium materials and a wholesome "Fuel-Up" snack break featuring fresh fruit, bakery muffins, juice, and water to keep our artists energized and inspired.
