This place is amazing! Took my son here during open studio time. The place was tucked away inside the Northwest Neighborhood Culture Center building. The kids have free range to be messy & creative with paint, pens, glue and clay. It was so fun to see my boy explore and play. He could have stayed there all day and was so excited to take his paintings home to hang in his room. I’ll definitely be taking him back.
PCAS is my family’s happy place. There’s nowhere else like it in Portland, or anywhere I’ve ever been. We’ve been coming here since my kiddos were little and it is so special. Kids can explore color, form and texture with high quality, real art supplies. The teachers are top-notch: caring, present, invested and kind. PCAS birthday parties are unforgettable and their classes are the first thing my kids ask for at Christmas. What’s not to love? Devon and her amazing staff are my favorite people in town. Highly, HIGHLY recommend this amazing studio!!
My daughter started going here almost 3 years ago for preschool classes, did summer camps, and transitioned into the Girls Art Club during the school year. It’s such an amazing space! She loves the teachers and all the art she does there- I feel really grateful to have such a wonderful place with great teachers in the neighborhood.
PCAS is one of my child and my favorite places. We were given a discount when I was low income to attend a class there, and they donated to our schools fund raiser. We go for open studio time during the year and have been to birthdays there and every time it has been amazing. So glad to have this resource in Portland. Also glad my child can paint somewhere that is not my house.
They love kids here and there is so much to do. Painting poster-sized papers on the walls with no worries about spills is a hit. Clay, including fired pottery, stencils, sculpture and plenty of glitter kept my girls happy for hours. There is a parking lot accessible on the corner of Flanders and 19th, which is on the back-side of the building, where the back-door entrance to the building, which leads to the Art Studio, is located.
