"Inspiring the artistic potential in ALL youth"

In 1921, Moore College first began offering art courses to young people through the Young People's Art Workshop (now Pre-College and Young Artists Workshop).  Moore's youth programs serve more than 1,000 youth each year.  The youth programs have continually provided art classes that enrich, challenge and instruct students in basic skills and techniques as well as build on fundamentals and develop students' creativity.  Our mission is to inspire the artistic potential in all youth in an exciting and challenging visual arts college environment.
