Arts For Learning Miami is providing a creative haven at their Lewis Arts Studio (LAS)! LAS is a place where talent and friendships flourish; where curiosity and commitment is required; where portfolios are developed, but more importantly, where essential life skills are nurtured and practiced. Skills in teamwork, communication, critical thinking, problem solving and flexibility emerge as students become more sophisticated in their artistic craft and thinking.
The program culminates in student exhibits for family and friends to see and enjoy all the amazing art created during the summer!

About The Lewis Arts Studio
The Lewis Arts Studio piloted its first program during the summer of 2009, thanks to the collaborative efforts of Arts for Learning, Design and Architecture Senior High, the City of Miami Mayor’s Office, The Miami Foundation and the Jonathan D & Mark C. Lewis Foundation. Each of these entities played a key role in establishing the framework, environment, content and resources for the program’s continued success.
The Lewis Arts Studio is currently made possible through the generous support of the Jonathan D and Mark C. Lewis Foundation.
