The Creative Academy is a fine arts program designed to introduce little ones to creativity.

We are located on historic Film Row in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City, serving families with little ones from ages walking - four years old!

Each day of the week, our students are introduced to creativity through play-based activities in one of our six prepared studios:

musical theater

sculpture studio

art studio

garden & culinary studio

storytelling studio

architecture studio
