CHILDREN'S ART CLASSES
Children’s Art Classes franchises provide a comprehensive art education and enrichment program for children aged 3-18, featuring classes in painting, drawing, design, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, and more, which supplement or replace traditional school art curricula. The business operates primarily during the school year with a 9-month curriculum aligned to local school calendars, plus summer sessions, targeting parents, schools, and community organizations in markets where art instruction has been reduced. The franchisor's model involves granting franchises to develop and operate 'Schools' offering these hands-on art programs.

Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 12 franchisee-owned outlets open for the full 2025 calendar year.
* Average gross revenue, median gross revenue, revenue top quartile, and revenue bottom quartile were calculated from the 2025 Gross Sales of the 12 franchisee-owned locations listed in 'Table 1-Gross Sales for 2022-2025' on page 2. Best guess profit (Adjusted Discretionary Income) was estimated by taking the average Adjusted Discretionary Income margin from the two affiliate-owned locations (Baymeadows and Beaches) in 2025 (as presented in 'Table 2-Summary Income Statement for Affiliate Owned Locations for 2025' on page 5) and applying it to the calculated average gross revenue of the franchised units. The average margin was (54.60% + 54.38%) / 2 = 54.49%. This margin was then applied to the average gross revenue of the franchised units ($163,461.17 * 0.5449 = $89,074.50).
