Avante Arts Academy, is an upcoming enrichment program and a small business that hopes to enrich the lives of students with music and arts. Our journey began in 2017 when the owner Sebastiani began teaching students piano lessons at EVO Tae Kwon Do. The goal was to create an enrichment center program alongside EVO as they offered afterschool care for children. Building a strong business relationship with EVO allowed Avante Arts Academy to flourish in providing children with experience in music and arts.
Our Journey
Words From The Owner
"Music has always been a huge facet of my life. From a young age, I was often found in a room night after night, learning various instruments and learning to record and produce music. Having experience in high school bands, performing in multiple bands throughout my teenage and adult life to this day as well as formal instruction under exceptional Drum and Piano teachers, I have grown a love of sharing this wonderful art with people of any age and background to experience the joy that music can bring!"

Words from our Art Teacher
"Art has always been a passion of mine since a young age. I began my journey painting murals for local businesses and teaching art classes at summer camps, and from those early experiences, I knew I wanted to build an arts school that focused not only on creative expression but on learning well‑structured, skill‑building art.
My teaching style is inspired by the highly structured art programs I observed in Japanese documentaries. Their approach, clear guidance, intentional technique, and hands‑on support motivated me to create classes that offer both discipline and room for creativity. At Avante Arts Academy, I design leveled, well‑rounded courses that help students truly learn how to draw, paint, and work confidently across different mediums. Every class provides direct aid, personalized instruction, and a strong foundation so students can grow with purpose and pride.
Because of this structured yet nurturing approach, our students have achieved remarkable success. They have competed in juried art shows throughout the Antelope Valley, earning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards at the fair and statewide exhibits. Most recently, our academy participated in the Tom Lackey Student Art Competition, where one of our students proudly earned 3rd place in their division.
I am extremely proud of the dedication, growth, and hard work my students show every day. Watching them develop confidence, refine their skills, and shine in public exhibitions is one of the greatest joys of being an art educator.
We are located within the Evo Tae Kwon Do facility
