Have the most creative summer experience of your children’s life. Visit Art Smart Academy, where “Creativity is Unlimited”. They offer programs for everyone, whether you are 3 years old or 16. If you have never taken an art class before, or if you’re a serious artist, then they have a place for you. Lessons include line, shape, color, value, texture, form and space. Art Smart Academy has small classes, private lessons, special education classes and advanced level classes. Art Smart Academy prides itself on the ability to impact the process of creating “art” upon each student. The students love sketching, drawing, painting, watercoloring, clay molding, designing jewelry, creating themed-projects, doing chalk/oil pastels, making pop art, stamping and collaging, plus much more. Each student is encouraged to produce his or her own interpretation of the art lesson. This approach promotes artistic creativity and builds self esteem in each student. Art, in short, is extremely important to a child’s development and can help him/her become a more imaginative and responsive adult. They have added printmaking, plaster crafts, jewelry design and “free studio/expression time” into the summer program. This “free studio/expression time” provides an opportunity for the young artists to revisit their favorite medium or previous projects. Math/Science tutoring by an Ivy League graduate has been added to the program offerings. They also host the best birthday parties and special event functions for groups such as Girl/Boy Scouts, religious organizations and sporting leagues. Please visit Art Smart Academy at 53 Prospect Place, Hillsdale, NJ 07642. Their studio’s main number is (201)666-8252.
