DID YOU KNOW?
Young Rembrandts presents a new lesson in every single class for SIX YEARS! For example - any child can begin classes in 1st grade and not repeat a lesson through 6th grade. THAT'S A LOT OF DRAWING AND A LOT OF LEARNING!
ONLINE Enrollment is available for many of our current and upcoming sessions. Just click on the View Classes & Enroll tab.
NEW WINTER LESSONS!
Winter art is ready, classrooms are being booked… are you ready to register? Young Rembrandts teaches drawing to children aged 3 ½ to 12. We intentionally teach relevant subjects to spark children’s interest and boost their memory skills. We believe EVERY child can learn to draw – and in Young Rembrandts, we’re showing them how.
If you have yet to register, there still is time!
At Young Rembrandts we teach children to draw - the fundamental skill of all visual arts - using a sequential, ordered process. As a result, students show dramatic improvement in their drawing abilities, expand their art vocabulary and art history knowledge, demonstrate patience, discipline and focus, and improve their attention to detail and sequencing skills. This program is a great supplement to, not a replacement of, your child's school art class. Most art classes are typically media-based, and drawing is seldom taught, thus Young Rembrandts is a great addition to all art programs!
Young Rembrandts is a partner of the Afterschool Alliance, a non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring that all youth have access to quality and affordable afterschool programming. Afterschool programs keep children safe, help working families, and inspire learning. To learn more, visit www.afterschoolalliance.org

5. My child has taken Young Rembrandts before, will this class be different?
Our classes maintain a similar structure, but our lessons are always new. We repeat concepts, but we have five years of lessons, so your child will always have a fresh subject to draw.
6. My child's school does not have the program, can he/she take the class at another elementary school?
Unfortunately, in agreement with the elementary schools, we cannot allow children that do not attend the school to come in for an after-school program. This is for the safety and security of all the students. However, if you are interested in your child's school obtaining Young Rembrandts, please be sure to contact us and the school to express your interest.
