CanArt is a structured, skills-based visual arts program designed for children and teens. Running from September to June, it offers a clear progression in artistic development, combining technical skill-building with creativity and critical thinking.

Each year culminates in a professional exhibition, where students present their work in a gallery-style setting.

Most art classes focus on one-off projects. CanArt is built as a long-term curriculum, where students develop skills over time.

• Clear progression through levels (like a learning pathway)
  

• Skill-based badges that track growth

• Emphasis on both technical ability and creative voice

• A final exhibition that treats student work with professionalism

Students build skills across key areas of visual art, including:

• Drawing and observation

• Painting and materials

• Colour theory

• Composition

• Visual language and storytelling

• Creative problem-solving
  
  

The program is designed to support both beginners and advanced students, meeting them where they are and helping them progress.
