Business Description

KidzArt's drawing-based fine arts programs emphasize creativity, individuality and building confidence for all ages groups. You don�t have to be an artist to own and operate a KidzArt franchise! While art education is all but eliminated from many schools around the country, KidzArt is providing a viable solution with after school fine arts programs, as well as programs that serve all ages. KidzArt programs and locations are simple to establish and businesses love to partner with us. Our rave reviews and national recognition from parents, teachers, educational administrators and community leaders will support you in your efforts. With KidzArt your opportunities are endless. And that�s just the beginning.
