hi,
i am looking for classes for my ten year old child who is passionate about art and childrens illustration, is the tuesdays or wednesday class what you would consider suitable for her?
Karen
Hi Karen, there are a range of options available, may I suggest you chat to the various educational venues (perhaps by checking out what the art supply stores in town recommend) and then go from there.
And consider carefully if they can support a ten year old, as some cater for younger and older students. Make Art Have FUN!
