Professional Tutoring that Focuses on Building Your Confidence as Much as Your Skill

Unlike casual art groups where you are left to your own devices, Studio 56 provides active tutoring. You aren’t just given a space to sit; you are given a mentor with over a decade of experience to help you navigate the common hurdles of being a beginner.

Guided Projects

We focus on manageable projects that teach texture, light, and detail in a logical, easy-to-follow way.

Small Class Sizes

We keep our groups small to ensure Suzanne can spend quality time with every student, providing tailored feedback.

Social Connection

Many of our beginner students are retirees or people looking for a new social outlet. You’ll find a warm community of like-minded people ready to welcome you.
