Cindy is very patient with her students and guides them through the process. At the end my daughter brings amazing pieces of art home and no one can believe that she painted them. She was already a good artist for her age but these classes make her open up even more and help her develop her talent. I am very glad I found this art school!

I've attended Creative Arts for about 5 years now and it's one of the best art classes I've ever…read morebeen to. They support everyone's creativity and unique ideas. Their classes are great for both young kids and older students. I did my AP Art Studio portfolio here and Meg is a great teacher. She fully supported my ideas and helped me develop them further to better paintings. I became a better artist here and would recommend to everyone that is either just starting out art or amazing at it already. It's a great place to work on any form of art. They've also helped multiple students get i to OCHSA and so much more! This is the best art class you'll find in Irvine from beginning art classes for kids to advanced classes for teens.

My husband and I are not very artistic so when our 9 yr old daughter asked us to add art on her…read morealready long list of activities, we were very hesitant. She kept asking for months so i decided to bring her to Creative Art. We explained to Meg that we did not know anything about art and there's no art gene run in the family. Meg assured us that she has had many students from families just like ours and they did great. We signed up for the tryout lessons and immediately were impressed with our daughter's progress. My very athletic girl can sit thru 2 full hours focused and quietly working on her projects. Meg knows how to encourage her students and she created a very laidback environment, perfect for you to explore and to be creative. Class schedule has many options and when we have conflicts with other activities, they are willing to work with you. I sent my girl's paintings to friends and family members and they are so impressed, we got a lot of "where did she get that from?" We are very happy with Meg and Creative Art

Update The studio reached out to me and I was able to enroll…read moremy daughter in the class. She's been so excited ever since the first class and is going to love it Original review My daughter really enjoyed her introductory class last month, and we were eager to sign her up for June. When we inquired about enrollment, the teacher specifically told us it was too early to enroll but that the time slot we wanted was available. We were instructed to wait until closer to June and were assured someone from the studio would contact us to finalize enrollment. Since no one ever reached out, I called the office on May 27th to get her enrolled. To my dismay, I was informed that the class was completely full. It was a big surprise, especially since we learned there had been a family on a waitlist for that same spot since April, a detail that was never communicated to us during our May visit.

I'm attending LA Art League because I was basically new to art when I started and I wanted to build…read morea portfolio so I could apply to art colleges. I've been with them for two months now and I've taken their traditional Drawing class, their Digital Art class, and also their Life Drawing class. I've learned so many fundamental concepts such as the rhythm of a line, drawing through my shoulder, and I'm currently drilling proportions for the human body. The teachers provide very personal attention and feedback that is both honest and encouraging. In the Digital Art class, alumni from art colleges teach students to draw and design on Photoshop and Illustrator while guiding them through their portfolios. The teachers also do demonstrations which are so incredibly helpful for me. I feel like I learn so much from seeing them compose a landscape or render a human head. Coming from essentially zero background in the arts, I've improved my drawing skills quite a bit and learned so much about what is required to apply for art colleges. The one and only downside to attending LA Art League is the parking. There is plenty of 2-Hour street parking available nearby, however, so I've gotten used to that.

Cannot in all honesty recommend this place. We had a bereavement in our family and were looking for…read morea healthy avenue to express and explore our feelings. After several communications, payments and a 50min drive. They were a no show. No email, no phone call no nothing to communicate that they had cancelled the class.

I first heard about the program from an acquaintance, and the first time I called the answering service took my info and immediately registered my kids for the orientation.

And before orientation I had already done my research, also Instagram and Facebook. You have to be very patient for this type of process because different factors come into play when doing acting and one of them is patience. These are very professional people .

My daughter has been attending Broadway Arts Studio for about six years. She started training there…read morewith very little vocal and dance experience. In that time, she has completely transformed from someone who came here to explore the arts and have fun, to someone who prides herself on wanting to be a performer full time and I could not ask for a better home or team for her to develop that passion. I say home specifically because that's how much she loves this place. If she could, she would spend every waking moment at Broadway Arts and that's a testament to Darcie, Troy, and the entire staff. The level of trust, warmth, dedication, professionalism, acceptance, fun and passion living in that building goes beyond words and saying I'm grateful wouldn't begin to describe it. My daughter has been in classes, MTC, BDC, summer camps, showcases, musicals; she's been cast in ensembles, bit parts, and leads; she's created best friends, danced in competitions, sung on her own, and formed memories that will last a life time all because of Broadway Arts Studio. If you're looking for your child to experience dancing, singing, and acting for the first time, this is absolutely a great place. If you're looking for your child to become a performer and fall in love with dancing, singing, and acting - this is the BEST PLACE in Orange County.

My 10 year old daughter asked to be signed up for an experience of acting in a play, so we chose…read morethe Broadway Arts Studio for a two week camp with the play, The Descendants. A couple of days before starting she was sent a script to practice for the audition, which she did. It turns out she was never asked to audition, instead she was give a minor, brief dance role for the play. Needless to say, she was disappointed, and I felt somewhat deceived having paid nearly $1000 for this two week training. It certainly appeared to us that they signed up way too many kids for number of parts available in this play. So in summary, I don't feel this was a good use of our time and money and I would not recommend this business.
