Saturday Art School

The Saturday Art School courses at Studio Pavilion at House for an Art Lover will inspire, entertain and educate primary school age children!

About Saturday Art School

Art comes in endless forms, shapes and sizes; this art class will inspire children to think boldly, brightly and imaginatively about the process of art making.

In these classes, children will explore a wide range of art materials and techniques that will inspire the limitless possibilities of the art form. Young artists will have the opportunity to express their own imaginative ideas in both 2D and 3D art practices through sculpture, drawing print-making and craft activities.

These fun and informative classes are designed to develop children’s confidence in art making and to expand their creative skill set. Through an exploration of colour, texture and form, the young artist can discover the limitless possibilities of their imaginations.

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Saturday Art School are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
