Nevada Arts Academy

Nevada Arts Academy sits at 6072 S Durango Dr in southwest Las Vegas, zip code 89113, and teaches visual art, music, dance, and theater to kids and teens ages 3 to 18. The academy breaks its age groups into 3 to 5, 6 to 10, and 11 to 18, so a preschooler and a high schooler are placed in separate classes rather than mixed together. It is filed in this directory under the Arts - Visual category, specifically Visual Arts - General, even though its actual course list stretches well beyond visual art into music, dance, and theater.

The visual art side covers drawing, painting, sculpture, digital art, ceramics, fashion design, and comic art. Music lessons are offered on piano, guitar, voice, drums, violin, cello, ukulele, bass guitar, trumpet, flute, clarinet, and saxophone, along with music theory. Dance classes include ballet, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, tap, acro, musical theatre dance, and lyrical, and the theater track offers acting and improv classes. Summer camps are also on the schedule, which gives a family a way to combine several of these disciplines into one week during school breaks.

Classes run as private lessons, group classes, and workshops, plus the summer camp option, which gives families a choice between one-on-one instruction and a class setting depending on the subject and the child's goals. Hours are posted for every day of the week: Monday and Wednesday from noon to 8 PM, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 11 AM to 8 PM, Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and Sunday from 9 AM to 4 PM, so there is a window to visit or take a class most days including weekends, a schedule broad enough to fit both after-school students and weekend-only families.

Instruction is listed as English only. For questions on scheduling a particular instrument, art medium, or dance style, call (702) 248-1288 or check nevadaartsacademy.com. No Google rating data was available for this location at the time of this listing.
