Spice up your child’s school holiday with a vibrant, hands-on art experience in Port Melbourne! Join us from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm each day (half-day bookings also available) for a creative journey filled with colour, texture and imagination. No prior experience needed — just a big imagination and a love for making things.
Our dynamic program invites kids to explore a wide range of artistic styles and materials through guided workshops and self-led stations. From wearable fashion and miniature food to glowing planets and prehistoric creatures, each day opens the door to a new artistic adventure.
By the end of each session, your child will walk away with artworks they’re proud of — and a head full of fresh ideas.
Style & Sparkle (Fashion Day) 13 & 22 January
Step into a day of colour, character and wearable art. From expressive fashion sketches to designing wild accessories and glowing face art, this day is all about self-expression and creative flair.
Into the Wildwoods (Nature Day) 15 January
Inspired by the textures and magic of nature, kids will explore tree prints, puddle reflections and leafy sketches. Expect earthy tones, playful sculpture, and plenty of creative freedom.
Earth to Sky (Elements Day) 19 January
From grounded clay houses to glowing birds flying through painted skies, this elemental day bridges earth and air. Kids will experiment with drawing, sculpting, and painting inspired by the world around (and above) us.
Tastes Like Art (Tasting Day) 14 & 20 January
A day where food becomes the muse! Kids will paint portraits using spices, mould colourful chocolate forms, and create miniature meals using sculpting materials. Full of sensory surprises and creative fun.
Now You See It… (Illusions Day) 21 January
This playful art day is full of illusions, tricks and surprises. Kids will explore glow-in-the-dark artworks, mirror symmetry, and optical sketches that make you look twice (and maybe flip the page upside down!).
Dino Dimensions (Dinosaur Day) 12 January
Travel back to the time of dinosaurs with art that roars. Kids will sketch ancient beasts, sculpt dino forms, and create glowing prehistoric scenes that bring the Jurassic world to life.
Each day includes:
Two hands-on instructor-led workshops
One creative station for self-guided exploration
All materials provided — just bring curiosity and imagination!
Each workshop is designed to be fun, accessible and inspiring — a unique creative experience every single day.
