School Partnerships

Unlock Creativity with Art History, Mixed Media and the Outdoors

Diana Stelin Gallery School Partnerships program – Boston art education collaboration recognized as Best of Boston Award

"Diana Stelin's programming is fantastic. She brings an extensive artistic background and experiences as an art educator to her classes and we are lucky to have her return to campus this winter for Anime Art with our Lower Division students."

– Caitlin Robinson

Park School

"I run the after school program at Lincoln School in Brookline where Diana teaches after school classes. Our students have loved being a part of her art classes and have made really creative pieces. Diana teaches the students about famous artists and explores different artistic techniques with them so they are learning about art as they create art. She is a joy to work with for both adults and kids. I highly recommend enrolling your child (or yourself) in one of her classes."

"My kids attended the summer camp and loved it. Diana created a wonderful art camp experience, learning about different art techniques in a variety of mediums and settings. I appreciated the dance classes and time outside as well as the fun art projects and visiting artists. 100% recommend!"

What a Six-Week Program Looks Like

Each week students explore a new story, artist, culture, or historical theme before creating original artwork inspired by what they've learned.

Recent themes include:

  • Ancient Egypt

  • Greek Mythology

  • Studio Ghibli

Students experiment with watercolor, clay sculpture, printmaking, collage, oil pastel, and mixed media while learning how artists communicate ideas across cultures and time periods.
