Art Education

At Wayne Art Center, we foster our students’ artistic development, regardless of age or ability. Instructors present lessons that form the building blocks of a strong foundation in the arts. Students are encouraged to continually challenge themselves and move forward in their artistic experience. Small class sizes ensure that students receive individual attention from their instructors and have the chance to interact with their fellow classmates.

Our faculty are working artists who have graduated from the nation’s most respected art schools. Many have won awards for their work and are represented in public and private art collections around the country. Our culinary classes and workshops are taught by professional chefs who have worked in some of the most prestigious restaurants in the area and around the world. Our music instructors have studied at renown music schools, and are also performers at prominent classical music groups throughout the region.

In addition to our core classes, we offer special workshops by regionally and nationally known professional artists, as well as lectures by art historians, artists and jurors.

What Students and Parents are Saying

Great facility, warm welcoming staff….simply the best!

I really enjoyed my class because learning new techniques and working in different mediums was really fun!

I loved my teacher, she was so nice!

My three kids just had a fabulous week of camp with you! They literally were waiting at the door to leave so they wouldn’t be late! I signed my son up got another week of video game drawing in the afternoons. Many thanks.

This class was incredible!

From my near decade at the Wayne Art Center, I can say the music program is incredible. The teachers are very talented, dedicated, and passionate about teaching lifelong musicians.

As a parent, I found the WAC music program welcoming and challenging. I enjoyed hearing the laughter and music coming from the music rooms over the years, and I found it encouraging to know my children were enjoying their lessons while learning.
