Your Child's Art Will Dazzle You!
If your child is in Kindergarten - 8th grade, loves to color, doodle or build at home but isn’t excited about school art class, you’re not alone.
Many art programs focus on cookie-cutter projects, where every child’s work looks the same, and they can’t even tell which is theirs without checking for a name.
Dazzle's Color Quest is different!
Say hello to child-choice art! Every activity encourages your child to experiment, explore, and create something truly unique. The magic is in the making, not just the outcome. Each session begins with a quick, 5-minute mini-lesson to introduce a new technique, but after that, the focus is all on choice, creativity, and imagination.
​
On Dazzle’s Color Quest, your child will discover 12 exciting art mediums, crayon & oil pastels, painted paper, collage, markers, tempera painting, chalk pastel, watercolor, printing, drawing & colored pencil, fiber arts, paper art & Origami plus cardboard & recyclables! They will explore, experiment, and create through playful mini lessons, each one an invitation to dive into new materials and techniques in a way that feels effortless, because learning is simply part of the fun.
​
Each level of the Color Quest program is designed with different children's abilities in mind. There are 8 different levels for your child to work through.This also means that there can be a variety of ages and abilities in each studio session. This creates a community where older or more advanced artists can become role models and inspiration for younger or less advanced artists.
As your child advances through the 8 levels, they’ll learn fun, new techniques, building confidence as they progress through the rainbow of colored pins & certificates of achievement. Your artists can proudly wear their pins on their FREE apron, each time they visit. This creates a joyful reminder of how far your child has come and a spark of inspiration for those around them. ​
My son has so much fun and gets to express his creative side.

At the end of each color challenge, your child will be celebrated, receive a certificate and a new colored pin. By the time your child earns their first certificate, you’ll see an incredible transformation.
​
They’ll start making independent choices, confidently deciding for themselves instead of following what friends or siblings choose, a strong sense of pride in their accomplishments, excitement to create without fear of “messing up” and a collection of beautiful, unique artwork made with their own hands.
