After School Art Classes

Product description
Terms & Conditions

Just Art It provides a fun and creative experience for the children, with access to professional equipment and high-quality art materials. We offer weekly after school art classes for children aged 8 to 12 years old. They will develop their artistic skills and creativity, while making new friends and sharing a beautiful learning experience together with their peers. Throughout the school year, your child will experiment through different mediums and techniques, from drawing to painting, and they will also learn printmaking techniques to bring home their own ready-to-frame prints. This is a great opportunity for your child to learn while having fun. Each day a new adventure!! 

Our art classes are designed and tutored by Elena Santos, a professional visual artist, qualified art teacher, and printmaker with over twenty years artistic and educational experience. Elena encourages self-expression, direct observation and working from primary sources. All courses cater for small groups to guarantee one-to-one tutoring in a safe environment and relaxed atmosphere, and all materials are included in the fee. 

Our groups are Tuesdays from 4 pm – 5 pm, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3-4 pm.

What to Expect

Creativity begins within and our classes bring it into the world.

Creativity & Self-Growth

Every child holds natural imagination and creative potential. Our art classes provide the space, guidance, and inspiration to help them express it openly and confidently. We encourage self-expression, direct observation and working from primary sources, with access to professional equipment and high-quality art materials. We nurture each child’s unique imagination, encouraging them to explore and express their individuality through creative projects. As they paint, draw, carve, or print, they not only learn artistic techniques, they develop confidence, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of themselves.

Learning While Having Fun!

Our art classes are thoughtfully designed to make learning feel joyful and natural. We blend structured lessons with open-ended exploration so children are constantly engaged and excited. Whether they’re mixing colors, trying new materials, or exploring new techniques, they also build friendships and share meaningful creative experiences with their peers. With every project, they’re learning to collaborate, communicate, and celebrate each other’s ideas in a fun, positive, supportive and artistic environment. Every session is a joyful journey of discovery. Every day a new adventure!

Well-Maintained Art Studio & Professional Materials

Our studio is clean, safe, and inspiring—set up to support creativity and exploration without distractions. We provide high-quality, age-appropriate art materials and tools so children can experience real techniques and take pride in their work. From professional-grade paints to proper stand-up easels, we believe young people deserve excellent resources to bring their ideas to life.

Punctuality & Flow

We value your child’s time and energy. Each session is carefully prepared in advance—the class is set up and ready to go the moment students arrive. Materials are organized, the space is inviting, and the atmosphere is calm and focused. Arriving and leaving on time keeps the rhythm of our courses flowing, respecting the time of fellow students and instructors. This steady, intentional flow helps children settle in quickly, stay engaged, and enjoy a smooth, rewarding creative experience from beginning to end.

Respectful, Safe & Inclusive.

We create a warm, welcoming environment where every child feels valued and safe. Respect for one another and for personal expression is at the core of our classroom culture. We embrace diversity and ensure our space is inclusive of all backgrounds, and perspectives, so creativity can flourish without pressure or disruption. Because true artistic expression grows best in a space where children feel free, supported, and seen.

Building Positive Culture

We foster a culture of kindness, cooperation, and mutual respect between students and instructors, creating a space where every child feels truly welcome, supported, and encouraged. Through gentle guidance and collaborative activities, children learn to share ideas, celebrate each other’s efforts, and build positive connections, turning the classroom into a creative community where everyone can thrive.
