• Art Classes with a difference.

    Our after school creative classes offer a safe, encouraging space for nurturing artistic confidence and freedom. We use and experiment with a wide range of art mediums.

    Art can help install pride and self - confidence, build perseverance, develop critical thinking, problem solving skills, teamwork and communication. Art helps wth cognitive development, hand eye coordination, spatial recognition and help children and teenagers find their voice and express themselves.
