Remembering Ed Warren

It is with great sadness that we announce that Ed Warren, co-founder of Bright Artists and the visionary behind our entire curriculum and approach, has passed away on September 21, 2021, at the age of eighty.  
​
Ed touched the lives of tens of thousands of children through art by passionately creating an internationally recognized fine art program. His connection to what matters most in life was always clear: his children and grandchildren, his wife, also a co-founder of Bright Artists, Sher, and his dear friends. He never stopped pushing to guide us all to the best of his ability and to make his influence on the world the very best it could possibly be. In this, he remains an example to us all, and his powerful legacy is certainly a lasting one.

In 2016,  the Warrens were honored by Disney with a prestigous Motif Youth Advocacy Award for the program that Ed created.  On top of developing a world-class curriculum for children, part of which he and Sher have generously donated to Bright Artists, Ed founded over two dozen private studios, a school enrichment program, created curriculum for an online program during the pandemic, and inspired countless teachers, students and their families, leaving a powerful legacy that will benefit generations to come. 

Our condolences and best wishes go out to his family, and our gratitude is limitless.

Our Program

We use the time-honored Warren curriculum and methodology, used and enjoyed by thousands of children in elite studio and enrichment programs throughout California and Washington State for nearly 30 years. This method requires teacher training, which can often be provided by local art studios to Bright Artists, free of charge.  Curriculum includes skill-based lessons using markers, color pencils, oil pastels, watercolors and more.

One of our Bright Artists, age 9, soooo proud of his Halloween themed work! We are certainly proud of him, too. 

Bright Artists is BACK!

 After a break, we're coming BACK in the Spring of 2022!

Working out logistics, of course, through this pandemic has been tricky. Together with the schools we serve, we decided to suspend classes during the lockdown and the tricky return semester.  We are pleased to announce that we are currently hiring and training teachers to visit the CASA program in the Placentia-Yorba Linda school district, and hope to add two new schools to our weekly roster. 

Fundraising continues so that we can come back strong!
