Art Play is tomorrow! Bookings will stay open until 5pm today (Thursday).

It's predicted to be a perfecto sunny, calm morning in the park. We've got multiple creative play experiences prepared for your little ones, and we are SO excited to gather again in community. ❤️

Ella Ella | Early Childhood Teacher | Play all day and myself are super passionate about offering creative experiences that encourage little people to follow their curiosity, have space to get REALLY messy, and engage in activities that get their whole body involved in the process. This is what we do for our kids, and we want to offer it to your kiddos too!

Happening every last Friday of the month. Tomorrow is our August session (and you can book ahead for September too).

Friday 28th August
10am to 11:30am
Valla Reserve
$45 per child
(non-walkers welcome free, we have a space setup for them)

Papier Mache starts in a week!

August is the cold & windy month, so come and spend your Sunday afternoons at the Nook learning all about the wonderful artform of Papier Mache.

You'll be guided and supported to make something of interest to you (images are just examples), all while enjoying hot cuppas and afternoon tea with a handful of other creatives.

Adults and older teens welcome.

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.

Second run of our Needle Felted Frog workshop is starting this week! Here's some photos of last workshop - we couldn't resist a photoshoot at the end, which had us all cracking up laughing! 🤣

Two consecutive Wednesday nights:
11th & 18th February
5:30pm to 7:30pm
$75

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.
