Online Art Classes for Kids in Toronto
Art classes that teach technique and India’s own traditions
Most children’s art classes are one of two things: a craft hour where everyone makes the same thing, or a Western fundamentals course that treats Indian art as a decorative afterthought. We teach both halves properly. Observation, line, proportion and colour as real technique, and Warli, Madhubani, Rangoli and Kalamkari as real disciplines with their own rules.

Art classes that teach technique and India’s own traditions
The test of an art class is whether a child improves at drawing, not whether they come away with something fridge-worthy. Mentors work on grip, proportion and observation from the first class, and because batches are small they can see each child’s page on screen and correct it while the pencil is still moving.
The Greater Toronto Area is where most of our Canadian families are, and it is one of the few places abroad where a parent can realistically find an in-person option. Families who choose us over one have usually done so for batch size and for pronunciation correction rather than for convenience.
Drawing fundamentals taught as skill, not as talent

Batch timings for Toronto
Live classes on ET, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 6:30 to 8:00 PM Eastern and Saturday mornings Eastern. Toronto shares Eastern time with New Jersey and Atlanta, so children often sit in batches with families across the border.
Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Scarborough and Vaughan account for most of our GTA families. Fees are quoted in CAD, and we will tell you plainly if a Toronto family would be better served by a local in-person class.

Prefer a room, paper and paint on a table?
Arts & Painting runs in person at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, and, like every class of ours, at our HSR Layout centre, 243, 16th Main Road, Sector 3, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. Both use the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. Families outside Bengaluru take the online batches, which cover the identical curriculum.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For online art classes for kids that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for ET. Weekday 6:30 to 8:00 PM Eastern and Saturday mornings Eastern.
“The storytelling program transformed my shy son. Last month he confidently narrated a Panchatantra tale at his school assembly. The mentors are patient, warm and world-class.”
Online Art Classes for Kids in Toronto, FAQs
Better than most parents expect. The mentor’s hands and paper are on screen throughout, and with a small batch they can see each child’s page and fix a grip or a proportion in the moment. Families who would rather have a room can join in-person arts batches at our HSR Layout centre or our Jayanagar arts studio in Bengaluru.
