Creative Multimedia & Contest Class

Does your child enjoy working with interesting materials? Do they have fun trying out different art forms? Foster their creativity in our Creative Multimedia and Contest class. This class is beloved by our students; many attend it every single year! Why? Because they get to use their imaginations to tell stories through art.   

Creative Exploration Through Out-of-the-Box Art Materials

We teach our students to go through the whole process of brainstorming concepts, designing details, and making their ideas into reality. This proactive thinking leads them to make artistic choices with careful consideration. They become resourceful problem solvers!


One of the projects that our students love is our 3D World Project. During this project, they imagine and create a world out of different materials, which takes an understanding of storytelling, design choices, and artistic mediums. They’ll need to think about what materials to allocate to which part of their design in order to build their unique world and characters. 


When you examine each student's completed artwork, you'll find more and more details about a narrative that each student has thoughtfully created. 

Artwork for Contests

During this class, students will also work on artwork for contests. Last year, our students won over 200 contests!  We want to provide our students with opportunities to share their artwork with the local and global community. We have contest experts who guide students on how to submit work to contests. If your child would like to focus on contests, then we recommend that they have foundational art training.
