How do I find the best art classes near me?

Before you take the next step in your creative journey, follow these tips to ensure you find an art class that's a good fit for you: First, determine what type of art you'd like to learn. Decide if you want to take a one-time workshop or a multi-week course. Read instructor reviews on Lessons and Google. Browse their portfolio of artwork created by their past students. Ask about fees, class sizes, and supplies needed. Visit the studio or classroom in person to check it out before signing up for a class. Wear clothes that can get dirty. Some classes have aprons, but you may still get paint or other art products on your clothes.

What questions should I ask before signing up for art classes?

Before you sign up for an art class, be sure to ask the instructor these questions: Which class should I take as a first-time art student? Does the fee include materials and supplies? If not, do you provide a supply list? What subjects do the art lessons cover? Where will the class meet? Are the classes restricted to certain age groups? How many students will be in the class? Do you offer online art classes? Are the online classes taught live or prerecorded? Can I buy a class as a gift for someone?

Kerri B. says, "Mario & I meshed when we first met. Perfect example, I would explain how frustrated I was becoming with the limitations on my point and shoot camera. I saw the progress I was making with the point and shoot. On my (6/16) lesson, prior to meeting Mario, I went camera window shopping. I was going to talk to him about the cameras, I was ready to move on, it was time for a new camera. Unbeknownst to me, Mario had the same idea. I bought a new camera and I’m in photo heaven! While the principle from the point and shoot are the same; the quality of the pictures are awesome! I’ve had my new camera for a week. I have seen progress while reviewing the photos I took, I can hear suggestions Mario will make and it makes me want to continue honing my skill set. I find myself taking my camera with me All the time. you’ll never know what you’ll find while out and about. Each lesson he assigns challenges you and builds on the previous lessons. The critic of your shots are very informative. He’ll explain how you could have made the picture better. I would highly suggest anyone looking to take lessons to reach out to Mario. He’s really patient, helpful and if you feel he’s talking above you head...let him know he’ll put it in layman terms! Kerri Roswell, GA" Read more

Mario is a great teacher. He taches you the basic fundamentals and you build from there. I’ve had several lessons now and learned so much from him. I could see the improvement in my pictures with the point and shoot. Now the real fun begins for me learning my new camera and not being limited by the equipment. I started with wanting to learn how to take better pictures with my point and shoot camera. I enjoyed what Mario was teaching me, I out grew my camera. I have the photo bug! I look forward to my new lessons and growing my skills . I’m able to take what I learn from my previous lessons and apply it to the new camera. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for classes to go to Mario! Thanks Mario and lessons.com Kerri

I’ve been working with Joe for 2 years now and I have learned both skills regarding my camera and the skills required for being a professional photographer. I walked into his class only knowing how to physically take a picture and now, I know how to capture a moment that tells a story and actually means something. Joe works with you hands on and pushes you to do things you never knew you could. Joe is a truly amazing teacher and I wouldn’t want to learn the true meaning of photography from anyone else. If you want more than just a class, if you want to actually experience photography, Joe is the way to go. You’ll look at your photos in a whole new light.

I started with beginning sewing at Phoenix College. Patti was the instructor, and she made the experience so much fun that I continued going back for two years. She was wonderful at letting me work at my own pace and allowed me the flexibility to work on projects beyond the regular curriculum. I can’t wait to get back to class.

I have always been apprehensive about my creativity and most especially drawing and painting. However, working with Lavenders Blue Art has given me the confidence to open up and allow my creative expression to flow without any fear of criticism or judgement of myself or others. I have learned a variety of artistic techniques as well as the opportunity to try a variety of mediums. Debra's teaching style is relaxed and inspiring. She has the experience, knowledge and patience that I needed. Now I feel confident to try new areas and have been pleasantly surprised with what has come from our lessons.
