Montreal Art Classes

After 4 years of running our classes exclusively online, we are thrilled to announce that Cestar Collège - Syn Studio will be relocating to a brand-new location in the Hochelaga neighborhood! This exciting new move will allow us to once again offer onsite classes at our own premises, starting with a small selection of our most popular traditional classes in April 2024.

Throughout 2024 and onward, we hope to slowly reintroduce more onsite class options as well as renew our Friday-night live figure drawing sessions (stay tuned for more updates on this on our website and socials in the future!)

Our new location is situated on the second floor of 3440 Ontario St E, Montreal, QC H1W 1P9, near the Joliette metro station.

For those located outside of Montreal, not to worry; we will continue to offer online classes!

If you are a resident of Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, you are entitled to an additional 10% discount on our onsite classes. Please write an email to [email protected] with your class choice and also provide proof of residency (a bank statement, utility bills, driver's license, etc.). We will then send you a custom PayPal payment request.
