Mission

The Spokane Art School is a non-profit corporation established in 1968 to provide quality art education taught by professional artists. We strive to remove barriers, both financial and otherwise, to hands-on arts education. We provide art classes to the general public in a variety of studio genres. Off-site classes are also offered through our ArtReach program to underserved groups; schoolchildren, Crosswalk clients, library patrons and community centers. The School maintains an active gallery exhibition program that provides educational programming for viewers, as well as exposure and financial support for local artists and teachers.

Classes

Washington State law (ESSB 5814) now requires that certain services be taxed when sold. Art classes fall under this new law and we are required to charge sales tax on all in-person and online classes.

Preregistration is required for all classes. Instructors can not take payments.
Online registration closes 48 hours before the class begins. After that deadline, we might be able to add you to a class if you call the school during business hours.
Classes with fewer than three registrations will be cancelled and the registration fee will be refunded.
Refunds will only be issued in the event of a class cancelation by the Spokane Art School.
Refunds or class credit will not be issued for missed classes.
Unless otherwise noted, classes are for adults 18 years of age and older.
