Rainbow Art School

— an atelier for young artists, since 2005

Open up the box to
creativity and imagination.

Rainbow Art School has been teaching young and old artists in Vancouver for over a decade. Our instructors work hard to help children find their true selves by opening up their imagination and creativity.

our mission

"To find who you truly are, to discover the 'unique' in you."

— Ellin, Art Director

Founded in 2005, Rainbow Art School offers classes across various levels and age groups — including a preparation program for Byng Mini. Advanced classes are also available for students pursuing art as a main focus for their careers or university and college preparation.

You have to reach in to grab creativity's hand no matter what obstacles stand in your way — and open up the box to creativity and imagination. Originally located at Arbutus Mall, the school relocated due to renovations, but the promise has stayed the same.

And every child leaves with paint on their fingers.

what we believe

Three things, always.

Find yourself

To find who you truly are, to discover the 'unique' in you — every class starts with that reach inward.

No obstacles

Real craft takes real persistence. We help students grab creativity's hand no matter what stands in their way.

Open the box

Once the obstacles are cleared, imagination does the rest. We just open the box and let it out.
