What should my child wear?

We love to embrace the art process, which means we might get messy. Make sure that your artist is properly dressed for an art studio. This means wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don’t mind getting paint on. Smocks are provided.

Can I bring water and snacks?

Please bring a water bottle to class.  You can also bring snacks to longer camp sessions.  We ask that the students eat their food away from the art materials.  Please let me know if your student has any allergies.

Where do the parents go?

This varies based on the location and will be communicated in the class reminders. Depending on the location and type of session, parents usually do not participate in the painting session. We want our students to develop their confidence by creating independently. Parents can drop off their artists or observe from the room. If your child needs additional support due to age or other needs please let us know.

Do you accept ESA funds?

Absolutely! At check-out use the code “ESA.” Upon enrollment we will send you an invoice to submit through Classwallet. Once you submit the invoice please send us a screenshot. Email emily@hotpotatoartstudio.com with any questions.

What does it mean to be on the waitlist? 

When a class is full, please join the waitlist.  We will do everything we can to accommodate all students who wish to participate. If a spot opens up you will receive a priority email to register. The waitlist does not guarantee your spot. Your spot is reserved once you have registered and paid. We do not hold spots. 

What about music? 

Art and music go together! We often play a wide range of music from oldies to current pop music, including Taylor Swift and Imagine Dragons. 

Can we arrive early? What if I’m running late? 

We open the studio 5 minutes prior to the start of the session. If it is your first session we recommend arriving a few minutes early so that we can show you around. Please be on time for class. If you are running late to class or for pick-up, please send us a text at 480-331-3807. The studio will close at the end of the session. Late pick-ups may be subject to additional fees.

What is the setting like?

We also offer classes at a variety of local businesses and micro-schools. Please confirm the location of the class that you are selecting. Location descriptions are included in the class description and confirmation emails.
