As part of the Oakville Art Society's mandate is to bring art to the Oakville community, classes are conducted year round for adults of all ages and skill levels, and for children 7 years and up.

Membership in the art society is not required but is appreciated, as the OAS then becomes your art society. Your membership allows you to have a voice in what courses will be offered to you and your family. Membership also offers discounts on our adult classes as well as other benefits.

All our teachers are experienced artists who have made a special time commitment to bring you the best of their expertise and to help you develop as artists in the media of your choice. Whether you are new to art, or have experience, you will benefit from the accumulated knowledge and skill of each of our teachers.

Class size is limited. Registrations will be processed in order of receipt.

Fall and winter sessions are 8 or 10 weeks for adults and 8 weeks for children.

In the spring, adult classes are 8 weeks and 6 weeks for children.

Adult courses run for 2 1/2 - 3 hours and the children's classes 2 hrs.
