Introduction

Vantaa Art School provides basic education in visual arts for children and young people aged 5-20 living in Vantaa.
Our instruction proceeds from one level to the next in accordance with the extended syllabus of basic education in the arts.
The studies are subject to a fee. We have five units around Vantaa.
Our teachers are art teachers and other professionals in visual arts.

We provide instruction in Finnish in groups once a week, in the afternoon and the evening. The groups have 12-14 stud
ents each; the groups for small children are slightly smaller. The early childhood and basic education groups have students from one or two age groups. In the groups for advanced studies, the age distribution may be wider.
You can study with us until you turn 21.
The lessons per year are divided into 34 study weeks, 16 of which take place in the autumn term, and 18 take place in the spring term.

Our instruction is divided by age group in the following manner:
Early childhood education for children aged 5-6 and 6-7.
Basic education for children aged 7-12. We also offer basic-level building and architecture groups.
Optional workshops for children aged 13-14.
Advanced workshops for young people aged 15-20.
The workshops offered vary slightly by year.

In addition to these, we also hold short courses for young people and families with children at the weekends. You can enrol on the courses regardless of where you live.

You can find more information about the studies, enrolment and fees on our website.
