About
Founded by NYC art teacher Sasha Schwartz in 2011, Scribble focuses on developing high quality arts programming that teaches problem-solving & creative thinking strategies. Scribble runs programs both at its studios (located in Dobbs Ferry, NY and Kent, CT) and around the greater New York area in partnership with a variety of community centers and schools.
Scribble is a developmentally-based art program for children as young as eighteen months to adults. At our studios, everyone is an artist.
