Join Us for Art in Central Park!
This summer, Kids at Art is heading outdoors for a special Art in Central Park experience. Young artists will explore one of New York City’s most beautiful spaces while drawing and painting directly from life. We’ll observe nature, architecture, light, and movement, and turn what we see into creative, expressive artwork.
Tuesdays
Ages 6 – 10
12:30pm – 2:30pm
Thursdays
Ages 11 – 14
12:30pm – 2:30pm
We’ll meet at the 72nd Street entrance to Central Park at 12:30 pm, then settle into a shaded spot in the park to create art al fresco until 2:30 pm. Each session is thoughtfully structured, with guided instruction, individual support, and plenty of room for creative exploration.
This part of our summer program focuses on drawing and painting from observation, helping kids build foundational art skills while staying inspired by their surroundings.
Participants should bring:
- A water bottle
- A small snack
- A sketchpad, if they have one they love
We’ll supply all other materials.
(In case of bad weather, classes will be held in our studio at 1412 2nd Avenue.)
