  • “Animals in Art was one of my daughter’s favorite classes, and Junior Art Studio was one of the courses she firmly requested to repeat in the fall. She said her teacher, Kerry Diedrich, was awesome and my daughter always came from class smiling and proud of her projects, which were fun and age-appropriate. Altogether we were very happy with the class!” -D.M. (Fairfax, VA)
  • “My son enjoyed the class.” -K.S.(Clifton, VA)
