“One of the best camp experiences for my kids ranging in age from 6-13. Walking into the YardArt, your child will feel like they are walking into a Tuscan garden! Nancy is so nurturing with the children and her expertise and knowledge of art is phenomenal. She makes the whole experience so much fun for the kids that they never want to leave!”
- Parent of One of My Students
YardArt is truly one of the most significant things my children have done! The environment Nancy creates brings out the best in the kids and genuinely helps them to develop confidence and validate the importance of their creative sides. Nancy genuinely loves being in the presence of the kids and the feeling is reciprocated. To top it off, she has created an oasis in her backyard that can't be matched, plus a welcoming indoor space for school-year Saturdays. Add two beautiful dogs and some great snacks to the mix and what more could kids ask for? YardArt is a child's place to shine, from elementary school right into high school.

This Experience was JUST what my son needed. He is excited each Wednesday that he attends Yardart and is never happy to see me come to pick him up. The creative environment is contagious and the culture kind and encouraging.

So this summer all three of my children are attending YardArt 2 days each week. They so look forward to their time there and have each created fantastic artwork. Thank you Nancy and Sarah.,

My granddaughter loves this new experience. She finds acceptance to be her unique self and has been exposed to many new media and techniques. Wish I had found this sooner.

“My daughter loved Yard Art! It's an idyllic setting in North Buffalo, where kids can spend a few hours nurturing their creative skills. All the supplies are included and the finished products are hanging on our walls now!”

"The Yard provides us with lots of versatility in an amazing atmosphere. As a parent, I would say …My kids really enjoy the time they have at The Yard. Nancy has such a great array of mediums to choose from and does a great job of finding what drives each child's unique creativity. Take care,”

"My son benefits tremendously from his weekly 'salon' at the Yard with Nancy and the group of gentle, creative kids her sessions attract. Nancy, a seasoned professional art teacher, is warm and incredibly supportive and encouraging of all modes of creativity. She is excellent at fostering collegiality among the group, has a great sense of humor, and is very accepting. Plus, she has all the high quality art supplies you could dream of on hand. My son is bright, introverted, and sensitive and makes every effort to attend her Saturday morning sessions; this says quite a bit about Nancy and the quality of the programming at the Yard.”

This Place is just magical My daughter asks ( sometimes begs)to go. I am always surprised by what Nancy gets out of these kids- amazing art. She teaches them how to THINK like artists and provides a nurturing inspiring atmosphere.

My daughter Adrianna attended YARDART for 10 years, since the age of 8. The highlight of her week was spending 2 hours doing what she loves to do and learning ways to improve her painting and drawing skills. Each drawing or painting got better and better and soon she was doing commission work for people who admire her artistic ability.She was encouraged to create whatever was in her mind, use which ever medium she preferred, ask questions and try different techniques. Now, Adrianna is graduating from high school and going on to study Architecture and Interior Design. We attribute the development of her artistic abilities to the guidance and encouragement she received from Nancy. YARDART gave her the foundation needed to be the artist she is today,.

If anyone knows any kids in grades k-12 interested in Art I highly recommend taking classes at The Yard. Nancy Amico is an extraordinary and inspiring teacher and she is one of the main reasons why I want to be an Art Teacher.
