She teaches art drawing (pencil, sanguine, charcoal), color techniques and modeling. Classes are held every day of the week. The school is open to all, children and adults alike, beginners and the more experienced alike. You learn at your own pace and according to your level. The atmosphere is as friendly as ever. The teacher also provides preparation for art school entrance examinations. The training center is accredited and referenced by Drouot. Students can also learn travel journal techniques.

Flax brings back the beautiful rue du Port with talent, attracts the eye of the passer-by, and affirms its vocation to democratize knitting, sewing and textile creation through a beautiful program of animations that can be followed on the Facebook page.
