We are an Art School based in Galway on the west coast of Ireland.
We facilitate art projects that are rooted in fine art principles, fused with contemporary trends and slathered in individual expression! We pride ourselves in curating a fun and innovative art curriculum that considers the children's needs first.
Art Classes & Workshops at The Art Barn are warm & inviting. We place the focus on the experience rather than the finished product, encouraging independent thinkers and creative explorers. We balance this approach with carefully prepared, structured projects.
