The Urban Fox Art School
The Urban Fox Art School is dedicated to the learning and creation of art. It’s based on years of work with students of all ages and backgrounds. As a student, you will be taught a medium—painting, drawing, colored pencils—or a process.
​
It’s likely, however, that you will learn a lot of both. In your classes, you will get maximum individual help, learn shortcuts, and meet similarly minded individuals who share your goals. From them, you will hear about their solutions and shortcuts, their frustrations and successes. There is nothing like interesting conversation and pleasurable hard work to bond a classroom.
On days in which there are no classes, the studio will be used as a gathering space for community based projects and other creative endeavors.
