ABOUT US
VISION STATEMENT
Our children’s art programs are rooted in fine art principles, combined with contemporary trends, and loaded with individual expression. The significance to our programs are that we place great value in collaboration over competition. We pride ourselves on curating an innovative art curriculum that grows with each child that blends mindfulness practices along with a deep appreciation for our place in the natural world.

The seed studio APPROACH
Each week we dabble with different media, blending only the finest materials with reusable and recycled materials when we can. We use high quality and real artist art materials such as oil pastels, liquid watercolors, acrylic paints & heavyweight paper to create our artwork.
MULTIPLE UNIQUE PROJECTS
Students create original and unique fine art projects (a mix of open-ended and guided lessons). We have been known to take on some pretty ambitious projects, so clear some wall and shelf space!
Whether you are new to our programs or have been with us in the past, we incorporate new processes and familiar favorites that kids love, keeping in mind to tailor the instruction to the group that signs up.
LOW TEACHER/STUDENT RATIO
Each child feels encouraged and challenged as we strive to maintain a ratio of 1:8
BENEFITS OF MULTI-AGE CLASSES
Our students have several years to develop their artistic abilities and are able to see themselves as progressive, successful, creative learners. They are viewed as unique individuals. We focus on teaching each child according to his or her own strengths. Children get to progress at their own pace and honor where they are in their creative process.
The older students have the opportunity to serve as mentors and to take leadership roles. Children are more likely to cooperate than compete. The spirit of cooperation and caring makes it possible for children to help each other as individuals, not see each other as competitors.
AGE APPROPRIATE GROUPS
Students might all be working with chalk pastels at the same time but the project and/or techniques are modified for each age and/or ability.
IT'S YOUR CHILD'S ART
Yes! Your child created his or her own project without the meddling pencil strokes of a teacher. It's amazing what children can accomplish with a little guidance and enthusiasm!
We are also proud of what we create and love to celebrate with an art show at the end of the week that showcases all the amazing artwork we created throughout the week.
