Enjoy a group art lesson for 3 students, including all art materials. Private Picassos is a mobile art studio, providing personalized art lessons for children and adults at homes, schools, offices and wherever our clients find convenient. We are a thriving art education business that serves New York City, Long Island, the Hamptons, Westchester, Connecticut and now Northern New Jersey. We also offer museum tours and art birthday parties, as well as programming for parents and adult students.

We believe in the intrinsic power of the arts on children and strive to help build self confidence in our students, as well as refine their fine motor skills, verbal and visual vocabularies and help them discover new and exciting art techniques. All of our programming focuses on exploration of materials and creative problem-solving rather than mimicry of adult-level art mechanics. We focus on art instruction grounded in the intuitive elements of the fine arts, not merely on arts and crafts. We strive to provide children with a better appreciation of the arts and their own thoughts and abilities.

All of Private Picassos' art instructors also have extensive experience teaching art to children, and almost all have degrees in art education. Many of our competitors hire artists, rather than art teachers. This distinction is very important; not only have our art teachers been trained in formal art pedagogy and have teaching experience, but they have also made a conscious decision to teach art to children and adults.

We have built a strong reputation by consistently delivering high quality programming at our client’s convenience and has been recognized by online, television and print publications, including the TODAY Show, PIX11 News, The New York Times, Crain’s New York Business and NY Family Magazine.
