My kids attended a week long camp here and I have to say I was so impressed with the staff and overall experience. Mr. Pete clearly has experience/ background in early childhood education and knows how to staff and run the camp with a clear objective and curriculum in mind. The kids did art and went outside to play each day and had huge smiles on their faces at pickup. The teachers took the time to do a quick, personal check in at drop off and pick up daily. I'd highly recommend and send my kids back!
The Academy has a miniature exhibit up now. It’s excellent. Just proving art doesn’t have to be big to be good! Thanks NOAFA!
Wonderful experience I had here. . . watercolor classes. The small size means more personal instruction and input from the excellent instructors. I wish there were more art academies like this, especially where I live now. I couldn't have asked for more. I learned so much, and staff was so kind.
Went for a drawing class and it was great, no complaints there. Very sweet instructor, good vibes from classmates, and it gave me a good foundation. Just kinda small.
Pleasant rooms for viewing. Polite, "tasteful" art in an uptown setting, if that's what you are attracted to.
