History
Agnes and Peter first opened their small art studio called 'apART-Studio' in Thornhill in 2008. From the beginning the studio enjoyed high popularity among the local families looking for professional and enjoyable art classes for their kids. In 2011 the studio moved to the Lorne Park area in Mississauga and continued offering private art classes for the local children and youth. Around the same time our art studio launched a successful after school 'Art for Kids' program in several elementary schools in Mississauga, which continues to this day.
In the fall of 2016 we underwent very exciting developments — 'apART-Studio' has changed its name to 'iCreate art studio' and moved to the new location at 987 Clarkson Rd. S. in the heart of Clarkson Village. In addition to the children programs we now offer classes for teens and adults, as well as portfolio creation and art-themed birthday parties.
