Youth Classes

Why not color outside the lines? In MCAD youth classes, kids are learning without realizing it; they are making, collaborating, playing, and experimenting in all types of mediums. As part of the most innovative and immersive studio-arts program in the Twin Cities, each class inspires kids’ self-expression, encourages creativity, and instills an excitement for learning. Classes are available for students ages 6–12.

Class themes include painting, bookmaking, animation, portraits, partnerships with the University of Minnesota Raptor Center and more!
