Fine Art Classes for Kids and Teens
in Toronto & Online
Painting Classes, Drawing Classes, Digital Art Classes, Fabric Arts Classes…
Centauri has it all.
Our Fine Art Classes for children and teens give young people the chance to build community with others who share their interests in art. These classes for young artists are about more than creating art: they’re about connection and community. Learn traditional and digital art making skills in our supportive and nurturing small-group classes. We never repeat an art project, so students can take fine art workshops with us year after year, both in our Bloor West Village Studio and on-line.
“I want to thank you and all the Centauri staff for doing such a wonderful job moving to online programming. My daughter is loving Digital Art!” – Edna
