Art and Drawing Classes for Children Ages 3-12:
Young Rembrandts is the art program with a difference! We teach drawing, the fundamental skill of all visual arts.

Young Rembrandts' acclaimed step-by-step drawing method teaches children to break down complex objects into basic foundational shapes. As they learn how to draw, the experience, repetition and variety of engaging and relevant subject matter brings them to increased levels of mastery in drawing - and in life.

Pre-school Program, ages 3½ to 5:
Pre-school children's drawings are precious. Their simple images help them communicate. But why stop there? Young Rembrandts classes give children the skills necessary to draw more complex images.

We understand young children spend the first three years of life discovering the world. They gather, collect, examine and process more stimuli in the pre-school years than any other time in their development, preparing their brains for more advanced learning.

At Young Rembrandts we have created a unique method of drawing that will maximize development, training in art and will prepare pre-schoolers as learners.
