A Brooklyn Heights atelier for children
A room on Montague with a piano, good light, and time to make something.
Afternoon classes on Montague Street, a block from the Promenade. Music and art to start, more rooms opening as summer fills.
We're starting with the two classes we do best, then opening more rooms as summer fills in. Small groups, afternoons, one teacher who learns your kid's name by the second day.
We start at the keyboard: where the notes sit, how a tune gets built, until the afternoon a kid plays a whole piece start to finish and won't stop grinning. Beginners welcome. No lessons needed first.
Piano · Beginners welcome · Ages 4 and up
Pencils, brushes, clay-soft pastels, real paper. Kids learn to look closely and then make the thing. We keep the mess on the table and let the ideas run.
Drawing · Painting · Ages 3 and up
One room on Montague Street, set up for making things. Afternoon light off the brownstones, a piano in the corner, a long table for paint.
Brooklyn Heights is front stoops and quiet side streets, and Montague is the spine of it. We wanted the studio to feel like part of that. You can walk over after pickup, leave your kid with people who really pay attention, and come back to find them showing off what they made.
Small rooms. Small groups. Nobody's rushing anyone.
Start with piano or art. Tell us if your child has done it before or is picking up a brush for the first time. Both are fine here.
Slots are grouped by age, younger kids earlier and older kids later. Pick the afternoon that fits your week.

| Afternoon | Who it suits | Usually running |
|---|---|---|
| 3:00 PM | Ages 3 to 5, our youngest makers | Art |
| 4:15 PM | Ages 6 to 8, building skills | Music & Art |
| 5:30 PM | Ages 9 to 12, going deeper | Music & Art |
Both piano and art run across the age groups. These are sample groupings, not the only options. We set the right afternoon with you when you reserve.
One kid hears it in a melody. Another notices the way afternoon light falls across a wall. We hand them the tools and then get out of the way.
Every kid leaves with something they built and can talk about. A first song. A painting that's actually finished. Something small they're proud of.
Kids learn in their own way. Some through the hands, some the ears, some the eyes. We teach to all of it, so the kid who hates worksheets still finds a way in.
Groups stay small. When a teacher knows your kid, she notices the moment it clicks and runs with it.
