NewSpring Art Studio

After careful and prayerful consideration, the NewSpring Board of Directors made the difficult decision to cease the operations and transfer the art programs of NewSpring to Cornerstone Family Ministries effective December 31, 2024.

We are pleased to announce that:
1. Cornerstone Family Ministries will offer after school art programs in 2025 in locations and dates to be announced next year. Check their website for more information www.cfmhouston.org
2. The current scholarship program will be administered by Cornerstone Family Ministries for the duration of the current recipients compliance with the guidelines for up to a total of 4 years.
3. The Flight 25 program will continue under the Chapelwood United Methodist Church Serving Ministries.

Since NewSpring began over 18 years ago, we have continued to provide visuals arts and mentoring programs to inspire underserved students and their families to achieve a better life. We are grateful for all of the support and dedication from the community, donors, funders, volunteers, our staff and board throughout the years. Together we made an impact that will continue for years to come.

NewSpring’s digital art class is a digital art class focusing on teaching young artists the fundamentals of creating art using digital tools like tablets, drawing software, and graphic design programs. The class begins with an introduction to the basics of digital art, including understanding layers, using brushes, and working with color palettes. As students become more comfortable with the software, they explore more advanced techniques like digital painting, illustration, character design, and even animation.
