We’ve Got Art Camps Galore This Summer!

June 11, 2019

It’s June! Which means, at Studio ACE, we’re celebrating the first year since the Studio opened its doors! In looking back over the past year, we’ve seen how much we’ve grown and that includes our Art Camps. In November of 2018, we had our very first Art Camp and it seems so long ago because so many exciting things have been happening. Not only have we expanded our camps to offer two separate age groups (ages 6-8 and 9-12) to better serve the age range and abilities of the children, but we are also offering multiple areas of interest for our budding artists! Our camps this summer include Art Around the World, Art and Nature, Outer Space and Art, Exploring 3D Art, and more!  We know that one or more of these fun and creative topics will inspire your young artist.

We have four camps for each age group in July, for a total of eight camps! We have created a page on our website dedicated to our Art Camps so you can view what we’re offering all in one place. Camps include drawing, painting, sculpture, puppets, music and fun! All supplies and snacks are included with each camp. Just bring your imagination!

ArtsConnect: Studio ACE’s Arts Integrated Curriculum Program

April 23, 2019

The acronym ACE stands for Arts, Community & Education. Our signature program, ArtsConnect, incorporates all three elements in our innovative K-8 School offering. This  program was created by and currently supervised by Linda Kallas, a retired, award winning arts teacher. After consultation with the classroom teacher, lesson plans are created, infusing the arts into Common Core subjects (math, language arts, science, literacy etc.) to enhance the student-learning experience. Each lesson integrates as least two of the arts (music, movement, performance, visual art) as well as imparting communication, critical thinking, collaboration, and creativity elements.

The arts and ArtsConnect provide an enriching, experiential opportunity for students to learn by doing through the arts as well as express themselves creatively.  There are ample studies that prove the arts engage the whole brain thus engaging the whole child through sensory experiences, which actively engage students in the process of learning.  The arts have proven to be instrumental in increasing attendance, decrease discipline issues, as well as improvement in test scores, all of which are critical issues in CA schools. Our goal at Studio ACE is to provide as much opportunity as possible to help educate our children through the arts.

Welcoming All Our Military To Studio ACE!

December 13, 2018

Since opening Studio ACE in June, we’ve had the honor and privilege to meet our new neighbors and the community we’ve settled into that we happily call home. We’ve had many individuals and families walk by our windows … and stop … and look closer and we’ve said “Hi!” and we’ve had a chance to talk with many of you.

It’s been a delight to see how many Military Families have dropped in to the Studio these past few months! Since we’d like to help out in a small way; we’re offering a 15% discount to every one of our military art students, whether you’re active duty, a spouse, a dependent, veteran, reserves or retired. 

As we’ve been updating our website, we now offer a drop-down menu for All our Classes and Art Camps where you can just click on “Military Discount”, with the price automatically calculated; and you’re good to go!  

Spread the word in O’side; we’d love to see more of our Military Community creating art with us!

Our New Space

November 18, 2017

After working out of our homes and storing supplies in garages throughout North County, we are thrilled to be in the process of signing a lease for a space in Oceanside. Having this space will allow us to greatly expand arts opportunities in the community.

Our commitment to providing accessible arts for children and families in Oceanside and the North County communities is strong and unwavering!

We are working hard getting the place at 3861 Mission Avenue in Oceanside ready for our Grand Opening in early June.
