Looking for a fun and creative way to keep your child engaged on days when school is closed? Our No School Day Program in Portland offers the perfect solution. Whether it’s a holiday, teacher in-service day, or another school break, your child will enjoy a day full of artistic activities that stimulate creativity and learning.

With the guidance of professional artists, our program ensures that every child has the chance to express themselves through different art forms. From drawing and painting to exploring new techniques like clay art and digital projects, your child will experience a variety of activities that make their day both exciting and educational.

Fun and Age-Appropriate Activities

We offer three distinct classes based on age groups to make sure that each child is challenged in a way that fits their developmental stage:

• Class 1 (Ages 4-6): Perfect for younger children, this class focuses on building basic art skills. They will enjoy simple drawing, painting, and clay activities that help them express their creativity in a fun and easy way.
• Class 2 (Ages 7-9): In this class, kids begin to explore more detailed art projects. They’ll try different materials and techniques, allowing them to discover new ways to create and express themselves while continuing to have fun.
• Class 3 (Ages 10+): For older children, this class allows them to dive deeper into more challenging art forms. They can work on drawing, painting, 3D art, and even digital art, expanding their skills and building a portfolio of their work.

Each group is designed to be age-appropriate, ensuring that the projects are fun, engaging, and at the right level for every student. Plus, each class has a maximum of 15 students, which allows for plenty of one-on-one attention from our teachers.
