The Art School was established in 2019, an invaluable asset to Naas and County Kildare.
Resident Art teacher Reza Macdougald has been teaching art for over 15 years and it has been a long term dream to finally open a much needed art school for all ages in Naas.
He is an accomplished teacher and professional artist and utilising all his knowledge he will guide you through your painting to the finished product.
He dosent hold back, he will share all his specialised traits and tricks of the trade to develop your unique personal style, he will gently challenge you and encourage you so you get the best out of the class and instil confidence in you which will be evident in your work.



Art Classes
The Art School is open Tues to Sat 10am to 6pm.
Learn to paint in a relaxed and safe environment .
Art is one of the most fundamental basics to instil relaxation and promote developmental skills, it engages and captivates the childs imagination and encourages dexterity and confidence from an early age.
It gives us that basic skill set to use and carry with us throughout life that we can pick up the brush where we left off and return to the easel at any age to once again achieve a sense of calm and confidence and awaken all those senses that we never loose… that is the wonder of Art!
Kids & Teens: €120 for 4 Classes.
Young Adults: €120 for 4 Classes.
Adults: €105 for 4 Classes.
