Art Play is coming up fast again!

Immersive colourful, tactile and messy art play for 2 to 5 year olds. A 1.5hr session where your little one can freely follow their artistic curiosity (and then you walk away from the mess).

Friday 24th April
10am to 11:30am
Valla Reserve
$45

Unsure what to expect? Each monthly themed session offers 3 to 4 open-ended art play experiences. An individual artwork (something to take home), and 2-3 collaborative projects. All materials provided, and we host it in the park so kids can dip in and out of the art play and move their bodies as they need. A quiet area is also provided for snack breaks and pause.

This month, Adult's Variety Class was all about oil pastels!

We had so much fun playing with these vibrant and creamy sticks of pigment! A rekindled LOVE of this medium for the whole room. I only wish my phone could translate the epic range of colours and detail in each of these paintings. 🤩 These truly GLOW in real life.

If you haven't picked up an oil pastel since childhood... run out and get some today. So. Much. Fun!

Thanks to all who attended for another swell session this month.I'm so stinkin' OVERJOYED that you all happily lean into it and have a (brilliant) go each month.

This one won't be offered again for a long while (or ever?), so if you're on the fence about it, I suggest signing up now!

P.S. this one is teenager friendly! So if you've been looking for a class to do with your teen, this is a good one.
