ART AND
EDUCATION
Art isn’t just learned. It’s discovered. At TONGWOOD, we blend traditional techniques with creative exploration. We offers joyful art classes, workshops, camps, and parties where children- and children at heart- will engage with diverse materials, celebrate play and promote artistic growth.

Studio Art®

Explore art through weekly themes inspired by different cultures and art movements. We work with open-ended projects using both 2D and 3D materials through painting, collaging, sprinkling, combining, attaching, smooshing, smearing, splatting, and all the joyful actions in our studio that build creativity, confidence, social/emotional growth, and fun.
After-School

The Art Lab combines guided creative studio time with group painting and drawing lessons.
