🍂 Fall 2026 preview
Fall 2026 Class Schedule
This year we’ve got more class times, a new class progression that grows with your family, and more one off art camp days.
🎨 A New Class Progression That Grows With Your Artist
This is the update we're most excited about. We've built a clear path that meets your child exactly where they are — from their first time holding a paintbrush to directing their own independent projects.
✨ NEW: Art Together (Caregiver & Me). Make art side by side with your artist. A joyful introduction to the studio and the perfect on-ramp to drop-off classes down the road.
Art Explorers (Drop Off, Ages 4.5–7). Our drop-off class for emerging artists, full of discovery and play.
Art Foundations (Drop Off, Ages 8–11). A drop-off class where growing artists build real skills and confidence.
✨ NEW — Independent Studio (Ages 11+). Older artists take the lead, directing their own projects in extended 90-minute sessions. Real creative ownership for the artists who are ready for it.
📅 A Schedule That just Works Better
We've reworked the pace of our semesters to give everyone flexibility with fewer headaches.
12-Week Semesters. We're moving from 8-week to 12-week semesters. You'll get the same seasonal flexibility with fewer registration dates to keep track of. Bonus: our winter semester will now wrap up before spring sports season begins. IYKYK.
50-Minute Sessions. We've shifted class sessions from 60 to 50 minutes. This small change lets us keep class sizes smaller, opens up more availability for makeup options, and better matches the attention spans of our youngest artists.
New Payment Plan Option. Per-class fees are actually coming down this year. BUT because you're registering for 12 weeks at once, we're introducing the option to pay in two installments:
50% paid at the time of registration
The balance charged at the semester midpoint
🏕️ MORE School's Out Art Camp

We Can't Wait to See Your family This Fall
All these changes comes from the same place: a commitment to serving our community better and giving every child a place where they can grow as an artist.
We're so grateful you're part of the Corner House family, and we can't wait to make something beautiful together this season.
Save the date: Registration opens Monday, July 14, 2026. 🎉
