My daughter has gone to camp here twice. And we will be starting weekly classes when school start starts. Everyone is always so welcoming and helpful. The only downside is that your child will come home and make you spend a bunch of money on new art supplies lol She has not stopped drawing, Creating, and painting. She was already a very Creative kid but now she has the tools to be able to implement it. She brought me a picture the other day, and it was perfectly shaded and said she had learned it at art camp. They really put a lot of effort into the kids learning. It’s not just arts and crafts. She feels seen here and that’s all I could ask for.
My boys 8 and 10 went there for week long day camp recently and had a great time! Monica the owner and another woman (forgot her name) were wonderful. I highly recommend it
I have thoroughly enjoyed the art garage not only for its professional atmosphere, but for the special care and attention they give to their students! They are intentional about making every child feel welcome and accommodate for their needs! They work together with parents to make sure their students are given an environment that fosters learning and creativity and I highly recommend them for any family who’s looking for enrichment opportunities outside of the regular school day!
My daughter has loved Art Garage. It’s been an incredible experience for her. The teachers are wonderful, she’s made a lot of friends, and she’s being pushed with mediums she’s never used. Highly recommended!
My oldest has gone to camp at The Art Garage for 2 summers. I am incredibly amazed with the projects that come home. Monica has amazing patience with kids that require a bit more attention to keep them settled down and following directions. My daughter learned techniques that she still takes about and uses in her own projects. I will continue to recommend art garage to anyone looking for a great camp and art classes.
