Washington Studio School runs a four-week Summer Teen Intensive, a visual-arts day program for students ages 14-18. Working alongside practicing artists Monday through Friday from 10am to 4pm, teens develop studio skills in drawing, painting, printmaking, and mixed media, build portfolio-ready work, and finish with a final gallery exhibition; all supplies are provided.

Great teachers and supportive environment.
I wanted to take a class here, but when I showed up there was a strange man with long gray hair, I think his name was Andrew, who was standing outside yelling about prints.
Give your brain a restorative break from the DC work grind and take a class here! You can start as a true beginner in a non-judgmental and supportive environment, and work your way up to intermediate and advanced classes. Highly recommend starting with Rachael Bohlander’s Intro to Drawing series. But it fills up fast! There is a broad range of teaching styles and topics, so you’ll be sure to find one you like.
I love this place - truly a DC asset. Wonderful environment to explore art and develop one's abilities, and sensibilities.
