About

Every kid deserves the best in art education • ENROLL NOW 2026 - 2027 SCHOOL YEAR • Our Programs • Our School • Contact Us • Follow us on Instagram! • @hangoutpdx • WE BELIEVE With our After School Visual Art Program, In-Service Days, Early Release Days, and Summer Camps, The Hangout PDX gives students the tools to become innovators, rule-breakers, imagineers, and creators. We’re helping inspire Portland’s next generation of artists and creatives. The Hangout is a creative place for kids to experiment with artmaking and be decision-makers in crafting their artistic voices. Students work with our teachers to design an after school experience they love! Our fun and enriching summer camps are designed for the artist of every level! We work with all K-5 campers to inspire creativity, self-confidence, and friendship while introducing new art mediums and techniques in their artmaking practice. Every parent/guardian needs a night off - and so do the kids! Check out Date Nights at The Hangout where kids get to make art, eat pizza (and popcorn!) and watch movies while their adults get some well deserved R&R! We love to host birthday parties and private events! From a DIY package to a curated art project, balloon house, and more, we’ve got you covered! We’ll work with you and your budget to help design the party of your dreams. We believe that art is for everyone and should be accessible to everyone. Kids should love their after school care and come home excited to talk to you about all the things they have created and learned. We are artists and educators dedicated to offering your child the freedom to make their own choices, explore new ideas, engage socially, and grow! We aim to have every child leave our program with confidence in themselves, the competence of an artist, and a sense of belonging in our community. “Thank you so much for being a ROCK for [our child] this first year of school.
