Church Street School For Music and Art: One Semester of Visual Art Class

Paint, sculpt and get in touch with your artistic side!

Children work with color, shape, texture, design and form and become familiar with a variety of materials and techniques while creating nonrepresentational masterpieces.  Work is facilitated by our teaching artists in a way that leaves space for the child’s artistic voice.

Church street school has been dedicated to arts education for students of all ages and levels of ability. As the only not-for-profit school for the arts in Lower Manhattan, we extend an understanding and love of the arts to a community that is economically, socially and culturally diverse.

Over the years Church Street School has truly become a community center: a safe place where parents share art experiences with their children, where groups of kids play in bands together, where audiences cheer on the performances of their neighbors, where those with the challenge of disabilities find a place to shine.

The teachers at Church Street School are highly trained and experienced in their art, educational approaches, and belief in the accessibility of the arts to all. A group of acclaimed professionals from around the world, we leave space in our approaches to learn from our students too.
