Once upon a time, in the small but mighty state of Connecticut, nestled between the hustle and bustle of New York and the historic charm of Massachusetts, there lived a bunch of super artistic and incredibly imaginative kids. These weren’t your regular paintbrush-wielding kids, oh no! These were the CT Art Wizards, and they had the magical power of turning ordinary objects into extraordinary works of art. The leader of these Art Wizards was a cool, quirky character named Doodly Dabster. With sparkling green eyes and hair as orange as a sunset, Doodly was always ready with his magic paintbrush that could create anything he imagined! With a twirl and a swish, he could paint from the colors of the rainbow or even from shades that didn't exist yet. Connecticut, with its vibrant autumn leaves, sparkling snow-covered landscapes, and sunny seaside views, served as the perfect inspiration for these young artists. They turned the stunning state parks into detailed landscape paintings, the historic buildings into charming watercolor illustrations, and the colorful birds into goofy caricatures that always brought out a chuckle. Just like the state itself, which beautifully blends the traditional with the modern, these kids could create a fusion of art styles in a snap. One moment they'd be channeling their inner Picassos with abstract art, the next, they'd be creating vibrant graffiti like modern street artists. With the CT Art Wizards around, every day in the state of Connecticut was like a magical art adventure! After all, in the world of art, anything is possible!

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are.
