Unlike traditional Spanish language learning schools, the Art of Language focuses on a well-rounded process for learning Spanish. Students enjoy a novel approach to language learning.

Courses run seasonally and include classes, art activities, and Spanglish cafes where students reflect on the art activities with native speakers. To enroll, visit The Art of Language website to take a Spanish level test.
