Fees and Payment Dates:

Welcome to Connecticut Art School in South Windsor. In the fall we will be starting our 24th year of teaching and sharing our love of art.

Each year we have a theme that is the focus of our Annual Student Art Show and ties in to special projects and community events throughout the year.

The 2026/2027 theme is “At the Carnival”.

Classes run weekly from September 14, 2026 through May 29, 2027. Our program is unique in that it is continuous session to session. Once a student registers they are guaranteed that spot for the year. Skills build on each other throughout the year so we highly recommend beginning with us in September. However, you can join a class at any time if space is available. To learn more about our classes, click here!

Our school year is divided into sessions with breaks for Thanksgiving, winter holidays, and spring break. Payment is due before each session begins - there is a $10 late fee if payments are not received on time. Please read the School Policies page for more information.

JOIN A WAITLIST - Often our classes are full. We will gladly add your child’s name to a waitlist and let you know as soon as a spot becomes available. Take a look at the schedule and email us a request listing your class choices in order. We do our best to find classes for everyone.
