Kids Art Classes

​Wildwood Kids Art Classes

Creative Exploration for Ages 5 & Up

At Wildwood, we introduce students to the fundamentals of painting, drawing, and clay through fresh, engaging lessons that encourage creativity, confidence, and fun. Each 10-week semester (Fall, Winter & Spring) features a new set of projects inspired by artists, art movements, and the changing seasons — so returning students always have something new to explore.

​

Each semester students experiment with a variety of materials, including:

• Acrylics, watercolours, pencil crayons, markers, pastels & more!

• We always have one Clay project each semester

• We choose a unique medium or technique that varies each term — keeping things fresh, exciting, and creatively challenging like alcohol-inks or print-making!

 

Every child receives their own sketchbook to develop ideas and explore the creative process, along with an art box to store their works in progress.

​

Classes are grouped by age and designed to be process-focused and age-appropriate, with plenty of encouragement, step-by-step guidance, and room for personal expression.

​

Flexible Age Groups

Our age groups are flexible - they help us place students with peers at a similar stage of development, but families are welcome to choose the class time that works best for them. Siblings and friends are welcome to attend together, and we’re happy to help you decide which group is the best fit. Our youngest students should be at least 5 years old when the semester begins — being a month or two shy is okay, depending on readiness.
