ASPIRING ARTISTS
The Corcoran College of Art + Design is pleased to present Aspiring Artists classes, offering hands-on, studio art experiences for ages 3–18. Taught by credentialed art teachers, classes give students one-on-one attention tailored to their skills and interests. Students can explore traditional subjects such as drawing and painting or adventure into specialized areas such as fashion illustration or cartooning. In addition to receiving formal instruction, students engage in discussions that add to their knowledge of artistic concepts and broaden their perspective as members of a community of young learners. Please note that tuition includes materials unless otherwise specified.

PRE-COLLEGE
Pre-College classes (ages 16–18) expose high school art students to the Corcoran’s challenging and creative environment and help them build strong portfolios for college admission. The primary purpose is to improve the quality of work in students’ portfolios and to assist them in the admissions process.
