Afterschool Art Program k-8

We do...

In-class Art Sessions—Take a break from the books and let us enrich your students through art! We also provide afterschool program services.

Paint Hive Studio—Afterschool provides interactive creative art enrichment programming for K-8th graders that engages their minds in a safe, familiar environment—school.

All of our classes are based on school campuses in the multipurpose rooms and are 1 per class for 10 or 13 weeks.

Each week students will engage in an art-making practice to enhance their learning in those areas. Students will also be able to get fun “How To Draw” worksheets, artist biographies, and other cool take-home art projects.
Our goal is to provide students the opportunity to express themselves visually through our unique creative arts program.

A Nonprofit Youth Art Program With a Mission

Paint Hive Studio – Afterschool is a nonprofit organization focused on youth arts education and after-school enrichment for K–8 students. Our mission is to provide access to high-quality art instruction that supports creativity, academic growth, and self-expression.

By partnering directly with schools, we offer structured art programs on campus, helping remove barriers such as cost, transportation, and limited resources. Our nonprofit approach allows us to prioritize equitable access, student engagement, and meaningful learning experiences for every child.

Art Education That Connects Technique, History, and Meaning

Students should be encouraged to experiment with various materials and tools, developing their technical proficiency while also learning to convey their unique perspectives through their artwork.

In addition to hands-on art-making, our curriculum will also incorporate art history, allowing students to understand the cultural and historical contexts that have shaped artistic movements and styles. This knowledge not only enhances their appreciation for the arts but also provides a foundation for understanding the broader human experience.
