What Is Young Art

♫[MUSIC]♫ Young Art is a drop-in art lesson studio. And what we provide is a safe space for children to express themselves creatively. But, also we're helping the parent that needs a few minutes to go and shop and to get their errands done. Also, gives mom and dad a chance for a date night. No matter how many instructors there are, they'll always be teaching each individual their own picture. So we do offer it to adults, as well. Here, we don't like to do all the stuff for them. We really want them to try to be independent and do it on their own. They really do get to learn the intricate details with like brushstrokes and learning how to use more than one different medium to create that one masterpiece that they want. A lot of kids who come in and say, "Oh. I'm no good at art or I can't draw." For example, I had one who specifically said, "I do not like art." He did his 30-minute lesson, and by the end of the lesson, he was just like, "I love this place. I want to come back here." That's what we're here for. We're here to show you step by step how to draw everything you want to. I was just shopping like anybody else, and I saw this new business. I'd never seen it before. And it just had art in the front. And I was like, "Oh. [CLAP] [CLAP] I'm going there." Our staff is dedicated, and they're driven. And they care so passionately about their students and about the experience, that if anyone ever doesn't have an A+ experience, they will do everything they can to try to redeem it, to make it right and to serve with the best of their ability. Our management team is very solid with one another. We're always communicating. We're always making sure that everybody is taken care of. You know, I feel like I want to take care of this company. I treat it like it's my own business when I'm here. All of the stores are activated to reach out to schools, to the non-profits and to become as involved as possible in giving and volunteering. We'll bring schools on site to do field trips, Girl Scout trips. When we ask ourselves, "What's our attention?" And, "What's our objectivity?" It is to do good. And it is, how can we give back? And, how can we be the most generous in any community? We're able to give something to schools through heavy donations. And we're able to send teachers onsite to schools or bring schools to us and thereby support the arts which otherwise might be cut out, you know, from the curriculum. Art is for everyone, and we want everybody to know that. That's why we have multiple locations. That's why we're rapidly expanding, is because we want everybody to bring out that inner artist, because every single person in this world is an artist, whether or not they know it. ♫[MUSIC]♫
