ART-CENTRIC ATELIER

At Rifugio Austin we redefine education through art. Our micro-school embraces a unique and innovative approach that places art at the heart of all learning experiences.

We believe that art is more than just a subject; it’s a powerful medium for exploring and understanding the world around us. Our art-centric curriculum is designed to ignite creativity, curiosity, and a deep appreciation for various artistic expressions.

Our students embark on a journey that delves into the world of different artists, styles, theories, modalities, mediums, inspiration, and processes. Through art, we bridge the gap between subjects, adding a layer of depth and meaning that resonates with each child’s individuality.

Art is not just an isolated discipline here—it is a thread that weaves through all aspects of learning. It is woven through thought-provoking projects that include language, literacy, mathematics, global studies, science, and social-emotional skills. It is a language that speaks to the child within, nurturing their imagination and self-expression.

At Rifugio Austin, we understand that art is not confined to a canvas; it’s a lens through which we view the world. Join us in embracing the transformative power of art as we unlock the potential within every child and make learning a vibrant and enriching experience.
