Years of study, art and graphic design in France, Germany, The Netherlands and New York have exposed me to the work of great artists and designers. I studied painting at Frankfurt's renowned art institute – Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende Künste and later earned my Masters from the Werkplaats Typografie in Arnhem, The NL. While the Masters was for graphic design and typography the work leaned heavily toward fine art. Experiences in New York were also stimulating and dynamic including Rolling Stone, The Source, Madison Square Garden, Terry Koppel Design and StudioWorks among others. I also taught art and graphic design to university as we...

Your Art Classes questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much do art classes cost near me?

Art classes cost $20 to $50 for a one-time session or $100 to $500 for a class including 6 to 10 weekly sessions. Prices for art classes depend on your location, the type of art, the school or museum offering the class, and whether the fee includes materials and art supplies. Most art instructors provide a list of the required supplies which you must purchase separately.

Can you take art classes online?

You can take art classes online through CreativeLive, Udemy, ed2go, and art specialty websites like New Masters Academy (NMA) or The Art Studio NY. Many museums, universities, studios, and individual artists also offer online art classes.

Prices for online art classes are similar to in-studio classes and primarily depend on the instructor's artistic reputation and whether the course features prerecorded videos or is held live.

What types of art classes are available?

Popular art classes offered in most locations include:

  • Drawing and sketching
  • Painting with watercolor, oil, acrylics, or pastels
  • Printmaking
  • Fabric painting
  • Ceramics
  • Sculpture
  • Jewelry making
  • Glasswork
  • Fiber arts

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?

It's versatile, dynamic and super fun. 1212 has a nact for making things work in creative ways. It's structured but also has this "ease of use" element to working. I really love how great of a teacher Jim is. He is willing to listen and figure out needs, a super selfless individual. I think in essence that why the business thrives bc it's leadership is solid and true. 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

Mr. Gil is one of the best teachers, in general, that I have ever had. For one thing, he is understanding and creative, wanting to help me explore new ideas and mediums with encouragement. He is also very good about keeping me motivated to continually practice and grow my talents. Lastly, you can tell that he really cares about art and the story that it tells about all of us. He has helped me discover that art has a meaning deeper than beauty, it explains who we are. I have been forever changed as an artist thanks to Mr. Gil’s teaching!
