Bridgeview School of Fine Arts in New York was founded by classically-trained artists from Eastern Europe and Russia.
The school teaches Drawing, Painting, Sculpture to adults and children. Also offering classes in art portfolio preparation for high school and college.
Bridgeview approach is based on the centuries-old techniques developed by generations of European masters. These techniques were painstakingly preserved in Russia through the 20th century while they were much forgotten in the west.
Each Bridgeview teaching artist can trace his lineage to one of the greatest 19th century masters. Regardless of our teachers' personal style (traditional or contemporary), it is their academic training that helped them to find their own voice. That is why they consider it the best learning environment.
Bridgeview School is conveniently located in New York City. We are in Long Island City (Queens), one subway stop from Manhattan by E,V,7 trains. We are two blocks away from the most spectacular waterflont overlooking Manhattan. Our peaceful and beautiful neighborhood is called Hunter's Point.
Small Groups. Lots of individual attention. Friendly Atmosphere. Our teachers truly care about the students' progress. Regardless of your level, they will give you the most amount of individual attention so that you make progress in your art.
Low fees. $12 - 17 hours per hour. For kids' classes all professional-grade materials are included.
