For more than 60 years, the Columbia Art League has provided high-quality educational opportunities for artists and art-lovers of all ages and stages. We offer skills-based courses in drawing, painting, fibers, sculpture, and more for artists ranging from beginners to professionals.
Professional and semi-professional artists will love our helpful workshops on marketing, sales, and presentation, while art appreciators and collectors are sure to enjoy our insightful artist talks, art history lectures, and tips on curating and caring for your private collection.
There's something for everyone!
"You can't beat the art classes at CAL. I have taken many art classes at Cal over the last three years—oil painting, drawing, and colored pencil. The teachers know their stuff, have a soft touch, and really enjoy helping their students learn. You can’t go wrong taking art classes at CAL."
