4Cats is a studio where children ages 2 to 15 are treated as artists and are exposed to real art materials. Where students develop art conversation while creating projects they are incredibly proud of!

Each month (or two) we study a different artist and work in the mediums of that artist. For example, if we are studying Andy Warhol we do silk screening, Picasso: we do ceramics, sculpture and acrylic on canvas painting. When we study Georgia O'Keeffe we make a large canvas flower.

The students also get to learn art history at the same time. We talk about interesting, age appropriate facts for each artist. Like Andy Warhol had 25 Cats named Sam or that Georgia O'Keeffe ate dirt when she was little!

Our classes are based on fun as well as technique. We use professional artist materials, silk screens, canvas, acrylics, palette knives, pottery wheels, kilns…

Students are encouraged to work at their own pace in a non-competitive environment.

The teacher is not viewed as the centre of the classroom. Classes are based on art conversation not lecturing. We have interesting stories to tell while they are working and relate these stories to the student's own life.

We provide as much guidance as the students wish to receive. We suggest and teach technique.

We offer once a week artist based studio classes (Artist of the Month Classes)
