About Us

Bridgeview School of Fine Arts (est. 2001) offers classical drawing and painting programs for children, teens, and adults in Queens, NYC. Our curriculum is based on centuries‑old European techniques preserved in Eastern Europe and taught by highly trained instructors. Students of all ages build strong foundational skills, win prestigious awards, and gain admission to specialized art high schools and top art colleges—often with scholarships in animation, illustration, architecture, and design.

We provide a friendly, non‑intimidating studio environment with individualized instruction in small groups (6–8 kids, up to 10 adults). Bridgeview combines time‑tested classical methods with true creativity, helping beginners and advanced students grow with confidence and skill.
