An Amazon after school option in the neighborhood. Kim and her team do a great job providing a nurturing after school environment where kids practice art. My son says the teachers are nice and help you do better and get better at art and stay focused on the thing they’re learning. More...

The students and 2 instructors visited my Comic Shop yesterday. The students were well behaved and anxious to hear about our store and the comics. They all had sketch pads with them! Seems like a great place if your child has an interest in art! More...

My daughter has been going to Portside After school program for three years and we absolutely love it, we have attended the Summer camp as well. Its a great resource for the community, they pick up the kids from school, take field trips, & my daughter has learned a great deal here. The teachers and staff are some of the best around, they are always positive and encouraging. More...

Portside is an incredible place for kids to go for after school programming. My son has been going for two years and really has thrived here. Their pickup at the local elementary schools makes it a hassle free after school transition. They do tons of art projects and have time to do their homework as well. The teachers and leaders are super caring and devote individual attention to all the kids. My daughter is looking forward to joining my son next year!Only thing I wish is they would spend a little more time outside to burn off energy when it's nice out. More...

My daughter loves the after-school program. She never wants to leave when I come pick her up. The teachers and the front office are great, you can tell they really care about each individual child. It's more then just teaching the children art, it's growing their self esteem. More...

We had our daughter's 4th birthday party here this past weekend and it was such a happy and fun event in a special space. Everyone had a great time . The booking was easy and the Program Director was super responsive. Our teacher leading the party, Miss Kelsie, was delightful and her face painting is second to none! I highly recommend. More...

Portside Arts Center has been a wonderful resource and inspiration in my classroom. My students are engaged in each lesson they facilitate as we connect math and art. I'm looking forward to the next few months to see what our students continue to create! Thank you ! More...

Absolutely adored the abstract watercolors art class that I took on Friday night with my mom. This was my first time to Portside Art Studio and I can say with 100% certainty that I will be back! The instructor Jamie was positive, attentive, and took a genuine interest in each student's bold attempt in creating art from watercolors. She replenished our supplies and adapted to the overall pace with which the class learned. I did not want to leave by the time class had ended! I hope Portside continues to evolve and flourish in a neighborhood that so desperately needs a creative outlet for the youth & young adults. More...

LOVE IT LOVE IT!! My grandson does the summer camp here and he loves it. It is sooo refreeshing to have a summer camp where their creative abilities are nurtured. And where he is not just "babysat" and left to just veg out. They are structured and interesting and fun. They go on trips and they are also NON PROFIT!! The staff there are wonderful and accomodating. I'd give them 10 stars if I could! More...

They have classes for everyone! From Arts & Crafts for the little ones to Upholstery, Stained Glass, Mosaics, Crocheting and Quilting. You can take full length class, usually 6-8 weeks, or arrange one day workshops for yourself and a group of friends. More...
