Newton Invites Children to 'Paint, Draw& More!'

Young artists will be taught to build an image vocabulary and develop problem-solving skills through the medium of art.

From the Town of Newtown:

Join Paint, Draw & More!

More than 20 years of experience in children’s art, we are proud to look back at our years of success as pioneers in children’s drawing classes that allow your child to express their creativity, while we teach them technical skills that help them blossom and build self-esteem through their artistic accomplishments. Our classes are fun and engaging, and each project is developed with your child in mind. We teach young artists how to build an image vocabulary, and develop problem-solving skills through the medium of art.

Whether your child continues in the arts or chooses another path, this creative development will enhance their intellectual growth and understanding of math, history and the sciences. Drawing fundamentals, like shape, contour, design, color and medium, are progressively used every week so your child can create new and varied works of art they can be proud of and excited to share.

The activity takes place Wednesdays from April 27 to June 1 for children ages 9-13 from 5:30-6:30 p.m. The cost to attend is $120. Classes will be held at Newtown Middle School, located at 11 Queen St., with instructor Susan Jackson.
