Each workshop will comprise a 1hr session specifically with Serena to see the kids stretch and develop their skills in different mediums and techniques, and a 1hr painting session with one of our resident artists.

Cost

$45 per session

$150 for 4 sessions (save $30)

Duration

2 hours of creative fun!

10am – 12pm every Monday, Wednesday and Friday

Session Details

Cartoons - Drawing

Mini Matisse – Learn how to draw characters, animals, dragons and monsters. Bring your own creative ideas and imagination as we learn fun ways to draw and cartoon!

Primary Picasso’s – We will be creating a cartoon comic, looking at characters, story and layout before we start to draw and hopefully colour your comic.

Fabulous Mr Fox – Collage

Draw, paint, paste and create our very own Mr Fox! This is a fun and creative workshop with our Mini Matisse’s and Primary Picasso’s working on two different looks for Mr Fox.

Mixed Media - Painting Stories

Draw from some of your favourite stories as we explore animal characters, sketching and painting. From the magic of some well-known books we will end our class with a painted owl.

Mixed Media - Painting Music

Music moves us. It starts in our feet and lights up our hearts. Be inspired to create with music stories as we draw a singing cat or a singing dragon. We will start by learning to draw both characters, paint and add patterns to our page. Choose from two designs or let the music inspire your own design.

Our Special Guest Artist - Serena Geddes!

This summer holiday we have a very special program led by international children’s book author and illustrator, Serena Geddes. Serena has worked for Walt Disney Studios and is the author and illustrator of the popular picture book Rosie and Rasmus and the illustrator of the Lulu Bell series, amongst many more!
