Our Classes
After School Classes
No experience needed - just interest.
Artwheel Academy classes are open to all children with a love for drawing or a desire to explore. Classes are intentionally small (maximum of 6 kids) to allow for individual attention and personal growth. We begin with oil pastels - an expressive, forgiving medium that encourages bold exploration - and slowly introduce classical techniques like shading, color theory, and composition.
But more than that, we guide students to observe deeply, to slow down, and to question. Through sketching everyday objects - like fruit - they learn how light, shape, and emotion interact.
Check out our gallery to see what kids create in the studio.
What your child will gain:
A solid foundation in drawing and painting techniques
Confidence in self expression
The ability to observe, analyze, and reflect - skills that extend far beyond the page
A nurturing space to create without pressure or perfection
Annual Calendar
Our Academy follows the DJUSD school calendar and will not have our regular curriculum-based classes during the holidays exhibited by DJUSD. During the summer, we will continue to have our Creative Art Lab and Open Lab. Tuition payments during the summer will go toward a selected summer camp of that month.

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new perspective.”
