Wednesdays, 5:30–7:30 PM · 14 weekly 2-hour sessions
The tools real illustrators use today — taught the right way.
Digital art the way working illustrators actually create it. Students learn to draw and paint in Procreate, building real artistic skill — not just app tricks — in a structured, project-based class. It's where so many kids want to be, with serious instruction behind it.
Students bring their own iPad + Apple Pencils and must have a subscription to Procreate ($14/month). Practicing between classes at home is essential to improvement.
What they'll learn
- Drawing and painting digitally in Procreate
- Layers, brushes, and digital color
- Translating core art fundamentals to a digital canvas
- Finishing and exporting a professional-looking piece
What they'll make: A portfolio of digital illustrations, ending with a printed, framed piece for the gallery exhibition.
Where it leads: The Year 2 step in the Grades 5–8 track, with advanced Digital Art studios for returning students.
The semester ends in a real gallery show
At the end of the semester, each student's strongest piece is matted, framed in our shop, and hung in our gallery for a Friday-evening exhibition with refreshments. Families are invited, and the work is shown the way real art is shown. Your child's effort is treated as what it is — art, not a craft to stick on the fridge. It's the part families remember most, and it's something no other art program in the area offers.
