Manchester Craftsmen's Guild's nationally recognized after-school arts program for high school students has been designed to educate and inspire any young person who has an interest in the arts and creative self-expression. Each of the many and varied studio courses and workshops offer great opportunities for skill development, critical thinking, experiential learning and preparation for careers and higher education. Individualized mentoring, portfolio development, educational travel, service learning and scholarship opportunities round out the MCG experience.

MCG's after-school program is offered at no cost to Pittsburgh Public School students. Courses are regularly scheduled to run weekdays from 3–5:30 p.m., but some exceptions do occur. Transportation via yellow bus is provided from select Pittsburgh Public High Schools Monday through Friday. Students may also qualify for public transportation tickets. At the conclusion of the day, students are shuttled from MCG to downtown Pittsburgh and use bus passes to travel home to their various neighborhoods.

Ceramics, Digital Arts, Design Arts, and Photography are included in the Apprenticeship Training Program.
