About the Sutton School of Art

The Sutton School of Art, founded in 2016, is a center dedicated to the artistic awakening of children. It's a place for blossoming, exploration and expression, designed for the young and old alike. We believe that creativity develops throughout a lifetime and that every day is an opportunity to awaken to our full potential for self-expression. The aim of our School of Art is to nurture a new generation of innovators from an early age, because our children possess the talent, spirit and values to engage in the current conversations about the current designs of today's society. We encourage children to turn away from screens and work with their hands to transform abstract ideas into tangible objects. An excellent way to prepare the next generation for the challenges ahead, with intelligence and a sensitive approach.
