ART GALLERY KIDS

After School and Homeschool Art & STEAM Classes in Phoenix East Valley (ESA Approved)

Join us for a class where learning becomes fun! With 19 years of experience as an art teacher and professional artist—and as a mom myself—I’m passionate about designing lessons that ignite creativity and foster a love of learning. I offer small class sizes so each student receives the individual attention they deserve. All of my art-based STEAM classes are screen-free and designed to develop artistic skill, self-expression, and confidence. Art is a powerful tool engaging both hemispheres of the brain, and I combine art with core subjects to offer engaging, hands-on experiences that transform the way kids learn.

Meet the Teacher

Hi! I'm Ms. Beth. I work as a professional artist and I've been teaching art for 19 years. Throughout my career, I've seen the transformative effect art can have on children. It's the one place they can make a mess, make mistakes, and create something great in the process. I see the pride and confidence it builds, the ideas it inspires, and the skills it develops. I’ve created fun art and STEAM classes that build skills like creative problem solving, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence to foster a love of learning and set students up for academic and personal success. I am an ESA vendor and have my fingerprint clearance card.
