After School Pick Up Program

Parents can enjoy peace of mind and a few extra hours at the end of their day with our local after school pickup class. Our dedicated instructors will safely pick-up your child and bring them to our studio for their art lesson. This program includes a snack, water and all class materials.

Previous art experience or lessons are not a requirement to join our studio. We welcome every level of artist, including absolute beginners. Our classes are structured with step-by-step instruction making the drawing process simple and fun.

Our afternoon classes are not limited to only after school program participants. If your child does not attend a listed school, they may still join our Weekday 4:15 PM Art Classes.

Schools We Pick-Up From

How This Program Works

Our After School Pick-Up Program is designed to provide working families with a reliable, enriching, and professionally led experience that extends beyond the school day. We offer school pick-up for students ages 4 -13 from Withrow School, Jackman, Holy Name, Montcrest and Frankland and bring them directly to our studio space, where a safe and creative community come together.

Art-Kitect’s After School Pick-Up Program is an additional ~$12.00 per day added to the cost of your art class. This fee is per class/ per day of the week selected (e.g., Mondays only). Many families register for multiple days per week if desired, as each day of the week offers a different lesson and curriculum, tailored to each cohort.

Pick-up begins at 3:00 PM from selected schools and the program runs until 5:30 PM. This gives Danforth parents an extra 2.5 hours and a stress-free alternative to the mid-afternoon rush.

All snacks, filtered water, smocks, and artist-grade materials are provided. Each session is thoughtfully planned to include a variety of mediums—such as painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed media—ensuring students are introduced to both foundational techniques and experimental approaches to artmaking.

We aim to make this program a seamless and meaningful extension of your child’s school day—supporting both their creative growth and your family's daily schedule.
