DRAWING AND PAINTING FOR KIDS

WHY KIDS AND THEIR PARENTS LOVE FINE ART FUN

Fine Art Fun isn’t about simple crafts or step-by-step projects — it’s where kids create real art with quality materials and their own unique ideas.

Each week, students complete a finished piece they can be proud of — the kind that parents love to frame and display at home. Many children return year after year, giving families the joy of watching their artistic growth and creativity blossom through every stage.

Whether your child is a doodler, dreamer, or budding artist, Fine Art Fun gives them the tools and confidence to grow — and have fun doing it.

Our programs are designed to help kids:
 

  • Learn Real Skills – from drawing and painting to color theory and composition.

 

  • Think Creatively – exploring new ideas, techniques, and materials.

 

  • Build Confidence – by expressing themselves in a safe, encouraging space.

 

  • Be Inspired – by professional art instruction made fun and approachable.

Mrs. Gleasman’s Fine Art Fun Drawing and Painting club continues to be one of the most popular enrichment programs at MPH for the lower school. Each session consistently fills to capacity, often with a waiting list of eager students hoping to join. The quality of the artwork produced is truly impressive; students explore their creativity while learning real techniques in drawing and painting. We’re thrilled to have this program at MPH and look forward to continuing to offer this exceptional artistic experience.
