Welcome to The Art Academy!
We’ve served the Minneapolis & St. Paul community for 19 years as artists and teachers, and have proudly helped turn thousands of students into confident adults and skilled artists.
The Art Academy was founded on a simple yet revolutionary philosophy: With time, encouragement and the proper instruction, anyone can learn to draw and paint exceptionally well.
When our unique teaching methods, which stress practice over talent, are combined with a student’s best efforts their hidden artistic potential is unlocked. Every term we see the dramatic improvements in confidence and abilities that can only come from a structured program.
At the Art Academy our goal is excellence in traditional art education, for children and adults, beginning to advanced.
“Fine art is that in which the hand, the head and the heart go together.”
-John Ruskin
1819-1900
