What We Offer in 2026–2027 to Schools and Educational Centres

Every so often people ask us what actually happens in an Art for Kids session — how a room full of 5-to-12-year-olds ends up speaking English while they paint, sculpt and build. So we've pulled back the curtain on our 2026/2027 programme to show you exactly how it works, who we work with, and why it matters.

Where imagination speaks English

Art for Kids Studio is Warsaw's only creative programme where English isn't a subject — it's the language children use while making things they're genuinely proud of. There are no textbooks and no grammar drills. Children aged 5–12 work in small groups of 7–10, led by an English-speaking instructor, and simply live in the language while they create.

The results speak for themselves: in this kind of immersive, hands-on setting, children pick up English 3–4 times faster than in a traditional school lesson. When a child is busy engineering a tower or painting Tokyo's koi ponds, English stops being a test to pass and becomes the natural way to ask, describe, argue and explain.

Three programmes — all entirely in English

The year is built around three strands, each turning a big idea into something a child can hold by the end of the class.

Around the World in Art (ages 5–12)

A trip around the globe, one masterpiece at a time:

New York — the Chrysler Building in cardboard & mixed media
London — paint the Gherkin Tower with geometric abstraction
Athens — build the Parthenon and its ancient Greek patterns
Tokyo — a koi pond landscape in watercolour & texture

Story Studio — Art Through Stories (ages 5–12)

Beloved stories become art projects that teach children to narrate in English:

Odd Dog Out — build a city of dogs and tell your own story
The Three Little Pigs — houses of straw, sticks and bricks, and why they fall
The Gruffalo — sculpt the creature and paint the deep dark wood
A story of your own — invent a character, build it and narrate the tale

Design & Engineering (ages 7–12)

Children become little engineers — designing and building real structures, testing what holds, what falls, and why. It develops spatial thinking, problem-solving and STEAM skills, all in English:

Bridges — design and build bridges, testing which shapes hold weight
Towers — engineer the tallest, strongest tower that won't fall
Famous Structures — recreate the Eiffel Tower, the Colosseum & more
Machines & Movement — build objects with moving parts, gears and balance

The schools and centres we work with

We're proud that some of Warsaw's most respected international schools and cultural institutions have brought Art for Kids to their students. Our collaborations include:

British School of Wilanów
Canadian School of Warsaw
International European School Warsaw
Centrum Kultury Wilanów
Sztukarnia Art Centre

These partnerships let us bring English-through-art into schools, kindergartens and culture centres across the city — and they're a big part of how the programme has grown.
