My 5 year old child attended the Spring Break morning art camp and had so much fun. The theme was Avatar and although he didn’t know who the blue person was, it didn’t diminish the fun he had painting. Each day had a new art project which incorporated painting, coloring, and gluing.

If you're looking for a fun, creative birthday party for a kid, I recommend the Monart School of Art in Southside Place.

We celebrated my daughter's 7th birthday here, and she and her friends loved it! We opted for the Art Station party: Four art tables with different art/crafts for each table. The best part is, before the party, the kid can select the art/craft activities for the party, as the school sends you a list of birthday activity possibilities. My kid opted for coloring sun catchers, fans, and wooden animals, plus making crowns. Each kid was given a bag with their name to collect all of their completed art.

There were 2 rooms: The Art/Crafts room and the Party room. This created a good environment for the kids to focus on the art, and when they were done, they went to the Party room to eat and unwind. As far as the parents, we were left to have adult conversations while the teachers observed the kids. The teachers were very attentive and kind to check on each kid.

Overall, it was a great experience. Highly recommend to any party-planning parent.

We've been coming to Monart for more than 5 years now. My son is not an art person, and he still enjoyed the classes. My daughter has been a part of Monart' program since she was 3. She's 7 now and still loves it. My baby is in mommy-and-me class, and we both enjoy the class very much. The "art class day" is her favorite day of the week.

The management is awesome. Ms. Daisy will make sure the teachers have a solid plan. She would also make herself available for parents, if there's anything that concerns you. Everything is very well organized. If there's a time conflict, they will try to work with you, provide you with options like makeup class, credit, etc. If you are uncertain your child would like the class or not, she will give you an opportunity to try out one class. Overall, they are very flexible and very willing to work with you.

If there's enough demand for certain class, she would even consider adding a brand new class / bring back an old class.

Monart is a good place for kids to develop interest and love for all kind of art (including painting, drawing, anime, graphic design, fashion design, pottery, digital art, etc). It has been a great joy for my children, and I'd recommend for anyone to try!

This is a great place where your children should be. Let your children enhance their imagination and fine motor skills while having fun. You feel the warmness of a family-owned company. My son has been attending this school, I'm so happy to have found it online thanks to reviews like mine. Do try it!

My daughter has been going to Monart for 6 years since she was 3. She is now 8.5, and still loves coming here every Saturday for her drawing classes. The instruction is great, and over years, I watched my daughter’s confidence in drawing build up, she now progressed to the Drawing Fundamentals II. They have great choice of creative classes; we also tried sculpture class and my daughter loved it. Unlike some other schools, they give me refund for the missed classes which is great. My daughter loves illustration and comics, so next semester we are excited to try their “Comic Book Creation” class, can’t wait to start. I love this school: they have wide choice of classes and wonderful creative atmosphere. They genuinely prioritize children’s creativity and artistic development over everything else. Over the years, we established great relationships with the teachers and feel here at home.

My kids have been taking classes here for years and they love it. As a parent you can see not only their artistic quality evolve but also their confidence and creativity. Every week is a different project and there are so many modalities to choose from. My kids have loved computer animation, 3D printing, manga, and pottery in addition to the variety in the "general" art classes. The portfolios at the end of each course give a concrete sense of accomplishment and pride, in addition to the thoughtful comments provided by the instructors. My kids say the following:
Leo--age 9: "their techniques are really neat and have helped me a lot over the years. They show interest into my and the other students' passion for art and take requests for new projects"
Ramzy--age 8: "I think it's really great. The art styles are really fun. I especially like the computer stuff".
Our family cannot recommend Monart highly enough!!

My children have really enjoyed taking online classes with Monart. The instructors teach multiple students effortlessly while also providing specific individual instruction. The kids have fun in the classes. The studio has gone out of their way to make sure things were easy to attend the online classes or access additional support for any tech issues, and obtaining supplies needed. We are excited to return to in-person camp when things are better as my children have also enjoyed attending camps at Monart over the years. We appreciate there customer service and ability to adapt and be flexible for the students.
