We have a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 12 students per class. Our after-school art classes are set up on a trimester schedule:
Fall Session: Sept 14 – Dec 18 (13 weeks)
Winter Session: Jan 4 – March 26 (11 weeks)
Winter Session: Jan 4 – March 26 (11 weeks)
Spring Session: March 29 – June 11 (10 weeks)
Classes are 1-hour and meet once a week for three trimesters. Our projects are based in art history and children’s literature. We use fine arts materials and incorporate local field trips. We also host a First Friday Art Walk opening of student work at the end of each trimester.
2027 Vacation Week Art Camps

2026 Summer Art Camps
All summer camps are one-week-long, Mon–Fri, 9am–3pm, with mixed ages 6 and up unless otherwise specified. We group students together according to age and ability and try to be sure all students have at least one peer during their camp.
PLEASE NOTE:
- We follow the Portland Public School’s snow cancellations. If Portland Public Schools close, we close.
