MAKEart Studios will close for a Summer Hiatus, July through mid-August

At MAKEart Studios, creativity comes to life in an intimate, home-based setting designed for personalized, small-group art instruction and hands-on workshops. Led by certified art educator and professional artist Heather Klausa, each session provides a rich, high-quality experience using top-tier materials for kids, teens, and adults alike.

After years of teaching in the public school system, Heather transitioned in 2016 to her home studio, where she’s been able to offer more customized and immersive classes. Located just steps from the Tivoli Theater in downtown Downers Grove, MAKEart Studios creates a welcoming, inspiring space where students can explore and develop their artistic talents in a supportive environment. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist looking to refine your skills, every class is a chance to grow, create, and connect with others who share a love for art.
