Art World School

Professional art school with many fine art class options, full day camps, and an after school program

An art and language school established in 1997 that provides extra curricular classes outside of school hours at convenient evening and weekend times. Professional teachers lead the small sized classes that are open to students from 4 years and up. The art classes are famous for the yearly recognition and collection of art from the World Children's Museum as well as the numerous number of awards r

eceived on national as well as international levels. The school specializes in the academic and technical teaching of art to students that differs from the usual school classes. Students learn professional skills from our experienced and dedicated teachers, and are also guided in completing their own works of creative art as well as participating in various art contests. The school gives students the opportunity and help them in participating in many art events, shows, and competitions to encourage their interests in art in hopes of helping students see art in different ways and link their learning to their future. The language classes are also aimed at enhancing the usual school curriculums and giving students more practice for greater progress. All of our classes are professionally organized curriculums that have proven to be effective and strive approval from parents, who are always well informed of student's progress and welcomed to give comments that are implied into the program. We have a Parents Teachers Association led by parents to provide better communication between the parents and teachers, and to organize events for parents that are held on a non-profit status from the school to give parents activities in the school as well. The school organizes many yearly events such as the Chinese New Year Celebration Gala, New Years celebration, Mid-Autumn Festival party, and parties every term. All students are invited to perform dance, singing, martial arts, and Chinese speaking at these events as well as other events in the Chinese community to enhance their learning experience. The school is very well known in the Portland community not only because of the fame of the founder and principal Jiao Ying, but also because of the achievements of the students. Wonderful student experiences have been shared on The Oregonian, The Portland Chinese Times, and other publications. The school has been expanding throughout its founding in 1997, and now has 3 locations in Portland. Students are welcome to take classes in NW Portland, Downtown Portland, or SE Portland. Free Trial classes are given to new students and please inquire about discounts!

These projects help our younger artists recognize primary and secondary colors in the rainbow. We build each color with simple clay techniques: rolling out logs/snakes and creating spirals. Of course students had the opportunity to customize the project in the end.

Recognize this character? We like to incorporate popular characters for students to recognize. Many younger students aren’t able to recognize famous artworks before the class so using recognizable characters get them excited to do the project.

Pottery happens every Friday and is available to register as a single class. This class includes time working at the pottery wheel and hand building techniques. Projects are open to all levels.
