Local resident Brenda Lortie is proud to announce the launch of a new franchise- KidzArt Shoreview. KidzArt is an international art education company that has 90 plus franchisees in the US and a growing presence worldwide. KidzArt Shoreview is offering art classes, camps and other programs throughout the Northeast Metro area.
KidzArt provides drawing-based instruction for students of all ages (including adult classes) by offering a creative outlet that encourages self-expression, creativity and right brain thinking in a safe and relaxing environment. KidzArt is a portable art program which brings certified instructors and all materials to afterschool classes, camps, clubs, recreation programs, home school communities or other requested locations. KidzArt has been asked by school districts and magnet schools nationwide to provide programs for students to supplement the existing art program in the schools. New curriculum is constantly being developed so students never repeat a project.
“Our classes allow kids to exercise their creative muscles and express themselves in a new way while developing their artistic skills,” says Lortie, owner/director. “In the process, students gain confidence in their artistic abilities and in themselves, as well as develop skills they need for academic success.”
