Multnomah Arts Center proudly announces the launch of our arts-based educational preschool: Little Artists Preschool. A center for high-quality, arts-focused early childhood education for ages 2, 3 and 4, our school provides guided instruction in the use of art materials and techniques in visual arts, dance, music and theatre. Little Artists Preschool is a nurturing environment that encourages each child’s individual style of creative expression. We strongly believe that arts education is fundamental to the development of a healthy, happy and engaged mind.
