Why artSPARK?

At artSPARK Creative Studio, we believe creativity is the new literacy. That's why our programs are designed to nurture creative thinking, personal expression, and confidence in young artists from toddlers to teens. We go beyond the final product to focus on the process of making because that's where imagination, persistence, and discovery live.

What Sets Us Apart

Studio Thinking Framework

Our approach is rooted in the nationally recognized Studio Habits of Mind, which supports young artists in developing lifelong habits like observation, reflection, persistence, and expression. [Learn more about the Studio Habits of Mind]

Supportive Creative Guides

Our instructors are a blend of trained teaching artists, educators, and child-development experts. They're not just here to teach. They're here to listen, guide, and celebrate every student's unique path.

Student Agency

We design experiences where students make decisions, explore materials, and experiment with ideas. This autonomy supports confidence, ownership, and engagement that lasts well beyond the studio.

Two Studios, One Vision

With locations in Littleton and Arvada, our programs are thoughtfully designed for each age and stage: from sensory-based toddler playgroups to teen drawing intensives.

All Materials Included

Every class, camp, workshop, and party includes high-quality materials. No packing lists, no guesswork. Just come ready to create.

I loved every day, my children left feeling energized, excited, and eager to share with me what they worked on. Bonus that so many of the projects involved collaboration with other little friends! So much warmth and support in this environment.

What Parents Say

My daughter was always so happy to go and explore her artistic side. She was able to gain a sense of independence going to art camp before pre-k.

Chelsea S.

When we picked our kids up from parents night out, they were glowing with excitement! They enjoyed their time, made lots of art from various mediums and were beaming with pride from trying something new. They were all begging to go back!
