I attended HCA when I was in high school. The skilled teachers here helped elevate my practice and guided me in preparing my college application portfolio. The art competitions I entered as a student with HCA were highly beneficial for my resume and college applications. I learned a variety of skills and art techniques here – oil and acrylic painting, sculpture, and still life painting to name a few. HCA also had visiting teachers and lecturers speak with the students almost every month. I have fond memories of this place being full of fun, experimentation, warmth, and community.
