  • Class was very informative. The teacher was very good and extremely helpful answering questions and providing useful tips. The soaps we made were very lovely.
  • Really nice class. Terrific instruction. I left with new techniques and a beautiful arrangement. Looking forward to the next class!
  • We absolutely loved it. Chloe was a great and patient teacher and we will be back asap!!
  • Great class, the model bouquet arrangement was lovely and the class well organized. The experienced instructor carefully explained the steps and provided valuable tips and education.
  • chloe was the instructor and so awesome
  • Justin the instructor was friendly and attentive while letting each of us work at our own speed. It was a fun, approachable introduction to pottery—it was a great way to end the work week!
  • Class was very knowledgeable. The teacher was pleasant and helpful
  • Learned a lot of techniques in this class that I was missing in my drawings. Izzy was very thorough and knowledgeable.
  • The Instructor, Izzy, broke down sketching and painting techniques into simple to understand steps that were also easy to execute. Izzy spent a lot of time with each student providing feedback and suggestions. I was amazed at what I was able to produce in just a couple of classes. When asked by friends and family to see my finished pieces I was happy to show them off.
  • Amazing class!
  • Wonderful class! Met so many nice people :)
  • I had such a great experience. Gloria was super attentive and passionate about the art, which made each class feel really intentional and inspiring. I learned so much and still practice ikebana regularly, it’s become such a meditative part of my routine. Every week we worked with different flowers and explored various ikebana styles, which really helped me slow down, be more observant, and appreciate the little details.
  • Overall I thought the workshop was fun and helpful. I’ve never used a sewing machine so I was worried I was going to have difficulties with the machine, but because they give you a breakdown for using the machine, it was so helpful. I was able to do my own projects after this workshop so I’m glad I tried this class. I do wish they had better prints for the bags but it’s not a big deal.
  • The class was great! The instructor was very friendly and informative. The class itself was a nice introduction to stained glass making. The glass was already cut and we learned how to assemble. The succulent plant you take home is really cute, too. A plant that I can keep alive! I'll definitely be taking more classes at this studio in the future.
  • Very positive and knowledgeable instructors to guide me through my ideas and various techniques, such as fun and enjoyable class, hoping to be able to return soon!
  • know what his doing, professional, approachable, and i learn a lot from for that short period of time.
  • Explained well. Plus hand out is good to read about candle techniques and safety.
  • Immensely fun! The environmentwas relaxed. Justin was very attentive, he gave easy concise instructions and helped when needed. He is an excellent teacher who allows you to discover your creativity in the craft, while guiding when necessary. The tools were well maintained, and safety guidelines were clear. I'm so proud of what I got to make. Anyone will enjoy this multiskill class and walk away with something they like.
  • It was a very fun class! I went as a group for my birthday and we all had a great time. The instructor Chloe was very friendly and knowledgeable and helped us all have a piece that we could be proud of in the end
  • I really enjoyed this class. I learned a lot. I learned to make large straight legged pants into fitted bell bottoms. I even fixed 3 pairs of pants at home on my own. Thank you.
  • This was a well paced class, and all the tools were provided and the instruction was good and helpful for my first time doing anything like this.
  • So much fun! Justin was such a great teacher and I definitely want to take another class at Element Art Center.
  • I had the best time visiting the Element Art Center for the stained glass workshop. It was really easy to catch on as our instructor walked us through each step. She explained everything well and was available and ready for any questions if someone had any. All the supplies were provided and if anyone needed anything extra, it was brought to us. We are definitely looking forward to coming back and trying a different class eventually!
  • I really enjoyed the class it was very informative and Mr Abdul gave me the skills and knowledge that myself and my daughter need to run a successful candle business. I'm going to take all of this classes as they are beneficial for my business. Thanks, Denetrice

  • Really fun! Instruction was great. You walk away with a finished piece that YOU MADE! They offer all the supplies, just bring yourself and your creativity.
  • I really enjoyed the Long Pose Figure Drawing class. The people there were really welcoming. It was my first time but I could tell there were a lot of regulars and it was a really nice creative atmosphere. Someone even brought treats because it was their friend’s birthday. The model was great, 4 hours in the same pose is no joke! I definitely will go again.
  • The class was so much fun and the instructor was super friendly and helpful!

  • I recommended this class to others and even took it a second time with my parents when they came into town. The studio space was clean, professional, and welcoming. The people were friendly and the teacher was great as explaining every step of the stained glass process. I am trying to learn more about the craft and take more classes at Elementary Art Center.

  • The instructor Lola, she was great! She took her time to explain all our concerns. My friend and I are planning to take another class there.
  • Great class! Friendly and informative instructors. All materials were supplied and it was a really doable step by step process. I made a pretty abstract stained glass piece that’s ready to hang up. Highly recommend this venue and class!
  • great fun, great instructor! Highly recommended!
  • The class was so fun and informative. We enjoyed creating our own stain glass piece and the finished product was a great addition to the art in our apartment. I would recommend the class to anyone who wants to learn about glass art.

Why You Should Learn Art in Los Angeles

Art provides a unique outlet to express yourself through different forms. It can be a relaxing and rewarding hobby, a productive way to spend your free time or connect with people with similar interests. Some people use art frequently as part of their careers, and others use their art skills to open art shops, galleries, and classes. 

Regardless of whether you want to learn art as a hobby or as a career path, taking an art class is a great first step. You can find dozens of art classes in Los Angeles, including painting, drawing, and knitting classes. 

In-Person Art Classes in Los Angeles

In-person art classes in Los Angeles are the best way to learn art. They provide individualized instruction and a way to personally connect with others in your area who are interested in the same type of art. There are dozens of in-person art classes in LA that you can browse throughout the year. Most classes provide all of the materials that you need. 

For example, a popular in-person art class is Paint + Sip: Crashing Waves at Brushstrokes + Beverages. The course takes place on April 20th and lasts for two hours. The class provides all materials, but you’re welcome to bring your own food and beverages to enjoy while you learn to paint. The course aims to provide a fun and enriching atmosphere while you pick up a new hobby.

You can also take a Soap Making (Cold Process Method) class on July 22nd for $79.

When taking online art classes, you may also have more options since you’re not limited to the classes in your area. For example, you can live in LA and take an art class hosted in NYC.

The teacher will guide the students through the process of making candles, mixing and choosing scents, and share tips and hacks. It meets on May 7th for a one-hour class. 

Courses like the Botanical Drawing class only need a pencil and paper. The class meets for six sessions and costs $275. You’ll learn how to draw plants, flowers, and vegetables while capturing the realistic likeness on paper. This class starts on April 21st.
