Teens build real technique across drawing, colour and painting in several mediums — developing their own style and, for older students, work toward a portfolio. Classes are grouped by age so teens work alongside peers at a similar stage. Choose how much to commit: come once, month to month, a term at a time, or lock in the whole school year — the more you commit, the less every class costs.

“I will be attending Vancouver Island University in the fall for Interior Design, thanks to the help of everyone at Grasby Art Studio… I made pieces I am really proud of and learned so much.”

How to register
How to Register
- Pick your commitment — Single Drop-In to try one class, or a pass (Season is the best value; monthly and term options are there if you'd rather start smaller).
- Choose your day — Monday, Thursday, or Saturday.
- Choose your time (for a drop-in, the date too), add the student's details, and add to cart.
Just want to try one class first? Grab a single drop-in — and bring a friend along to try it together; teens settle in fastest alongside someone they know. If you continue, we'll help you move up to a pass.
