My 7-year-old daughter has been going to the Art Fundamentals class for the last few months. She has always loved drawing, but we've been amazed by how much her skill has improved since working with Sarah! She's also been exposed to several mediums that are new to her, which is a great part of the class. Best of all, it's by far her favorite activity -- she's always so excited to go, which (as anyone with young kids knows!) really speaks for itself. I would recommend Art School of SF Bay and the Fundamentals class with Sarah to anyone who has a child excited to learn more about art!

My 13 year old just wanted a place where she could learn more, practice art, and get some feedback. We wanted a supportive environment for her to have fun with her creativity. She took Teacher Nadzeya's Beginner Teen class Fall 2025 and really enjoyed it. So much so, that she wants to take her class again. Thank you Art School of SF Bay.

My 6yo daughter has been attending weekend art classes here for just over a year. She loves it! The classes have a good variety of projects (drawing, painting, sculpting), and the teachers do a good job of providing age-appropriate art technique instruction. Most recently, she has been in the class with Sarah, who has been warm and friendly with my daughter. My daughter is always proud to show us her creation at the end of each class :)

My daughter attended winter camp this year. The staff is great and the paintings and sculptures they are working on are simply amazing. Would highly recommend if your kid is in to painting, drawing etc

My daughter enjoys her time in Art School of SF Bay. She likes Teacher Cameron because "she's nice and helps me a lot". As parents, we're happy that she gets to try different materials every week and make something really cool to bring home!
