★★★★★Haoyu BiGreat service! My daughter had an amazing time at the summer camp. The teachers are top-notch—so supportive and enthusiastic—and the projects they designed were incredibly fun and hands-on. It was a perfect blend of learning and play. Thank you to the team for creating such a positive and memorable summer experience!
★★★★★Miaosen ShenMy daughter has been going to this studio for more than three years. She loves it a lot and has improved her drawing skills quite visibly, she started from Art Exploration class and will soon to be Art Advanced class.
★★★★★Betty YeeCal Color Academy is a wonderful art program that is well organized with fun and creative projects. My two sons enjoy the class and look forward to their weekly classes. Scheduling make up classes are seamless with Casper’s help. We love our art teacher, Ms. Serena. The convenience location makes it easy to run errands during the 1.5 hours that they are in class. We love Cal Color Academy!
★★★★★Dan DongThis is my son's fifth year at Calcolor! He started around four and half in Exploration class and leveled up to Foundation when he turned to seven years old. He also joined the Digital Art class since the beginning of 2025. Without extra words, one can easily tell how much he loves Calcolor :P. We love that Calcolor provides a very educational art curriculum for younger kids all the way to teens and their projects are fun, as well as introducing art skills and philosophy to students. He is with Ms Connie all the time but he also knows every other teacher and staff since sometimes we have to do make-up classes due to conflict and he is an 'old' student here lol. Every teacher and staff is super nice to the kids! Multi-media art is very popular recent years. When Calcolor opened Digital Art class in Newark site, it quickly caught our interests. My son signed the class for sure and he absolutely loved the class! Ms Yunli is a fantastic digital art teacher and she teaches the kids so many interesting projects with brilliant art ideas. I can tell everyone is super happy because when I pick up my son, the kids are always smiling at their projects :P. We will continue our journey with Calcolor for the sixth year, seventh year... Highly recommend the art classes here! I just upload his most recent digital art project sea turtle with Zentangle art. I have to cut it to three pieces since it is 90 secs long and google review only allow 30 secs for a single video.
★★★★★Wei SuMy daughter enjoyed the class a lot! she is literally addicted to her teacher Ms Connie lol. Calcolor put up a 10-year anniversary art show recently and my daughter submitted an artwork and she had a blast at the exhibition!
