My Cool World

Art Class

For the past twelve years, Lisa Hermann and Uma Sashti have been creating cultural art lessons for children that inspire perspective, appreciation, and creativity with the belief that kids should learn all they can about our world so they can be open-minded and kind and celebrate our differences. Learning through the intersection of art history and global cultures is a simple way to enrich learning, to enhance cultural awareness, and to develop outlooks needed to participate responsibly in the 21st century global community.

Lisa and Uma's flagship enrichment program, International Travelers, was founded in 2008 and has been implemented locally in Atlanta Public Schools and at various institutions around the country. Lisa and Uma continue to develop lessons for schools locally and nationally, teach art at after-school enrichment programs and camps, and create craft kits that provide families a way to learn about exciting new cultures right from home. It is a joy and honor for them to teach students about the world and to watch them create beautiful art that respects global cultures and traditions. They believe that making art is essential for fostering independent thinking and emotional well-being, and they show kids that learning can be fun.

Forefront Arts

We believe that experience in the performing arts provides students with many valuable life skills including self-confidence, resourcefulness, teamwork and self-control.  Our desire is that our students not only develop a love for the arts through our classes and drama clubs but that they also develop their confidence, imagination and leadership skills. 


We offer leadership opportunities and internships for advanced students who wish to cultivate experience in arts education and arts management and we partner with several local theatre and arts organizations to expose our advanced students to networking and artistic opportunities.     


We handle all the registration and tuition payments, plan all classes and activities, run rehearsals, design and create sets, costumes and props for each production, and even sell the tickets to each performance!  

Whether you are looking for an adjunct teacher to teach theatre classes during the school day, an after-school drama club at your location, performing arts classes for your children or a community outreach program for your church or community center Forefront Arts has the experience and staff to provide a top-notch performing arts educational program for your students!
