Just because you are staying home, doesn't mean your young artist has to miss out on art with friends! Drop in, join a series class, or put together an Art Club with your child's friends and keep the art making going!
VIRTUAL Art After School and Art After Lunch
for artists in K-5th grades
Let us fill your child's afternoons with art, materials, and big ideas! Each week in this 75 minute Zoom class, we examine works of art and unlock the ideas and processes used by the artists to create them. Since the coronavirus pandemic began, our teaching artists have worked hard to capture the essence of our in-person programming in an online format, and we are delighted by the connections we have been able to build online. Like our studio classes, our online projects emphasize process, problem solving, and experimentation, and are designed in response to the students' interests. Classes are capped at ten students for plenty of one-on-one attention, and are hosted on Google Classroom so it's easy for your and your young artist to stay connected and inspired. Each series culminates in a virtual celebration, open to friends and family members all over the world!
Each virtual session with Eckford Street Studio includes one of our fabulous ART KITS! Our Art Kits are assembled at our studio, and are packed with supplies hand selected by your teaching artist to provide everything you will need for every project you will do together, and then some. Art Kits are delivered to your door before class begins. (Shipping fees apply outside North Brooklyn.)
"I wanted to reach out and share that [my child] thinks the kits are really cool! I also wanted to thank you and the teaching artists for your thoughtful and well planned [program]. It’s honestly made me feel that remote learning...can work and can be engaging, if only they put as much work in as you all have. Thank you!"
~Parent of 6 year old artist
