3SQUARES ART STUDIO for children — Photography

My daughter attended the 3SQUARES Art Studio's photography program in North Vancouver over the past few weeks, and overall, it was a solid experience. She loved experimenting with different camera angles and even created a portfolio piece that she was proud of. The instructor, Sarah, was very engaging and provided helpful feedback that motivated the kids to be creative. I appreciated the small group size, which allowed for more one-on-one attention. However, I did find the pickup a bit chaotic; it can get crowded at the end of the class, making it hard to locate my daughter amongst the other eager kids. Thankfully, she’s quite outgoing, so she made a few friends along the way. For creative kids aged 8 to 10, I would recommend this program with the caveat of being prepared for busy pick-up times.

My son attended the 3SQUARES Art Studio photography program in North Vancouver and had a solid experience. Each week, he looked forward to learning new techniques, and his instructor, Mia, was particularly engaging, encouraging the kids to express themselves creatively. During the program, he built a small portfolio of photos that he was quite proud of, showcasing his unique perspective. The small group size really helped him feel comfortable and allowed for more personalized instruction. However, I did notice the pickup process could get a bit chaotic, with parents lining up and waiting for other kids to gather their things. It wasn't a deal-breaker, though. My son made a couple of friends in the class, which was a nice bonus. Overall, I'd recommend this program for kids who love art and have a creative spark, just prepare for some potential waiting at the end of each session.
