Joy Creating!

The Visual Arts School offering art classes for kids, teens and school children

Welcome to Young Artists

Young Artists is a visual arts school that has been based in Castle Hill of the Sydney Hills District for 15 years.

The Young Artists Art School provides programs and school term art classes for preschoolers, kindergarteners and teens, catering for all abilities and interests. We also host special art workshops in the school holidays for children between 5 and 18 years of age.

Young Artists’ programs and art lessons have been designed to give students a rewarding art experience in a nurturing, creative, and inspiring environment.

We develop technical skills in drawing, painting, mixed media, printmaking, collage, clay, sculpture, ceramic painting and glazing.

Our programs and art classes give students confidence by allowing them to experiment with a wide range of media. We teach art terminology and help students recognise their own strengths and weaknesses as artists. Programs and art lessons also change from term to term, meaning students stay interested, and challenged.
