ink & easel Art Studio

Welcome to ink &amp; easel — An innovative art studio designed to inspire artists of all ages and experience levels. Through small-group instruction, workshops, private lessons, and open studio sessions, we create opportunities for our community of artists to explore, learn, and grow through art. From drawing, painting and crafting classes to private events and take-home workshop experiences, ink &amp; easel makes creativity accessible both in the studio and beyond. No two artists learn the same way - that's why our private and semi-private options are fully personalized. We create custom art curriculum based on student age, interests, experience level and creative goals. Our mission is to bring art to the masses by empowering individual creativity and building a vibrant community through hands-on artistic experiences, expert instruction, and a passion for self-expression. It’s a good day to make art.

Learn the Skills, Love the Sport, Swim for Life!

Long Island Swim School

Long Island Swim School is the teaching arm of the nationally ranked Long Island Aquatic Club. Our Learn to Swim programs create strong, safe, and confident swimmers for life. With locations in Garden City and Syosset we train over 2,000 children each week at every swim level from Beginner to Olympian. Long Island Swim School offers swim lessons for children ages 2 - 14years old. The main emphasis of our programs is to teach children to swim correctly and develop essential water skills in a relaxed environment. Our goal driven and technique oriented approach is the key to your child's success. Through skill based quality teaching our students develop a joy for learning and a passion for swimming. At Long Island Swim School, we teach children to swim the same way the best in the world do. By using age-appropriate, proven techniques children build real skills in kick, pull, body position, and breath control. Our logical, consistent progression turns every fundamental—whether blowing bubbles or learning butterfly timing—into a building block for efficient, confident swimming. Our professional staff are swimmers and coaches with the knowledge to give your child the skills to achieve more than just water safety. We provide the best foundation possible for success. Not every child will dream of Olympic glory, but every child should have the foundation to take them there. Whether the end goal is a competitive journey or a recreational one, whether your child competes in 2044 or they are happy playing in their home pool, the skills they learn at Long Island Swim School will take them as far as their dreams allow.
