Rating of the best art schools in Nizhny Novgorod in 2020

For a long time people have been arguing whether it is possible to become a good artist, or should they be born? Supporters of the fact that real artists are talented from birth cite world famous names as examples: Picasso, Van Gogh, Dali, etc. But isn't it hard daily work and the gradual development of their talent that made them the greatest artists? Even if a person initially does not have a talent for drawing, then everything can be learned if you apply the desire and effort. The same people who are endowed with talent by nature are simply obliged to develop it and direct it in the right direction. Moreover, the ability to draw develops imagination, memory, improves the perception of the surrounding world, a sense of style. In addition, drawing contributes to self-expression, which is so often lacking in everyday life.

Below we have reviewed the most popular art schools in Nizhny Novgorod, in which talented not only children, but also adults study.

Conclusion

We reviewed 8 out of 29 art schools in Nizhny Novgorod. They got into our rating due to the large number of positive feedback from students, due to their popularity and relevance.

As can be seen from the description, all the schools listed above can be divided into two groups: with a budgetary form of education (basic classes) and a paid form of education.The first are mainly municipal educational institutions (Art schools No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, "Izograf"). They carry out classical education according to traditional curricula. Education in them is free, but additional paid services are possible. They are focused on teaching children and preparing adolescents for admission to the profile. Only Isograf organizes classes for adults, but on a paid basis.

The second group with a paid form of education included private studios and schools: "Painter", ArtBox, Cultura Graphica, "House of Arts". They offer a more flexible approach to learning, with proprietary methods and a more flexible class schedule. Some of them even offer supplies, including them in advance in the cost of training. Both children and adults can study in such schools and studios.

Which school should you or your child choose? The answer is simple: private studios with convenient working hours are more suitable for developing talent in an adult. If you want your child to connect his future life with drawing, then municipal institutions with a classical training program are more suitable.
