Wrightwood Programs

We service both Los Angeles County and San Bernardino counties. Some of our programs are currently offered in Wrightwood, CA, as we continue a long standing commitment to foster cultural exchange between rural and urban areas. We serve both adult and youth.

Youth Classes

All youth classes are designed to teach specific art forms and mediums while fostering an appreciation of diverse artistic styles. Our classes build student confidence, artistic literacy, and teach art as a tool to express ideas. We view every person as a nature born artist!
