Artist Ellen Colcord founded the Colcord Art Studio School of Greenwich in 2002.  Since then she has taught hundreds of students ranging from pre-school to adults throughout the greater Greenwich community.  The school's focus is to offer an intimate space for her students to explore their creative expression through drawing, painting and mixed media.  Ms. Colcord teaches in small group settings, accepting up to five students per class to guarantee that everyone receives personal attention, but also develops playfulness with art through camaraderie with the other participants.  Parents often get involved by assisting in developing group classes with their children’s friends.  In essence, tailor-made classes can be organized.
