COVID-19 Precautions: These are a few of the precautions we need to take to ensure the safety of our families. Admission to the class, is at the discretion of Deepa Krishnan.

  • If the faculty (Deepa Krishnan) or anyone in her family falls sick or shows any symptoms of the COVID-19, then all future classes will be cancelled with a full refund given and all parents will be informed. 
  • Parents are required to answer the covid screening questionnaire, before the start of the class and check the temperature of their children before leaving for every class.
  • The studio and the materials used will be sanitized daily, in every possible way. Students will be asked to wash their hands thoroughly and sanitize at the beginning and at the end of their classes everyday. 
  • Class size is limited to 4 students per class. 
Please Note: A full refund will be issued if the student withdraws from the classes for whatever the reason may be. Safety of the students and the families are my highest priority. 


Art & Craft activities are entertaining and at the same time beneficial to children in many ways. It helps them with decision making abilities, improves concentration, boosts their self-confidence, increases their problem-solving abilities and also improve their academic performance. Research has proved that Art could help create a better S.T.E.M student!
