Who we are & what we believe.
For Art’s Sake Art Studio and Gallery believes that children are intrinsically creative and that fostering their interests and curiosity is important for a child to thrive. All people deserve the opportunity to create and express their thoughts and feelings. For Art’s Sake Art Studio and Gallery is committed to guiding students of all ages and skill levels in the development of their individual expression through instruction in visual art techniques and methods as well as foundations of artistic theory. Above all we support and encourage our students to be themselves and have FUN in an accepting and comfortable environment.
