Advanced art programme for teenagers aged 13–18 at Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Academy on Al Reem Island, covering portraiture, still life, perspective, and mixed media techniques. Built specifically around portfolio development for IB Art coursework and university art school applications, not just casual drawing practice. Monday and Wednesday sessions run 90 minutes with instructors experienced in guiding students through formal art school submissions.
This session runs 90 minutes, for ages 13–18. Classes cover a range of media: drawing, painting, clay, mixed media, and increasingly digital art. Toddler classes (ages 2–5) focus on sensory exploration — the process matters more than the finished product. Older children work with structured techniques while developing their personal creative style. Many studios hold regular exhibitions of student work, which builds pride and motivation. Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Academy offers a free trial session before you commit.
Parent tip
Resist the urge to judge your child's art by how realistic it looks. In quality art education, experimentation and creative risk-taking are more valuable than technical precision at young ages. Ask them about their work rather than telling them what it looks like.
