"We recently hosted an art party for our daughter Daisy's 8th birthday, and it was an absolute hit thanks to Mandy of Creative Matters. It was well organised, easy to book and curate it to what we were looking for; everything was supplied including all the air clay and copper wires used to create the pieces.
Mandy has such a warm and encouraging manner that helped settle a group of over-excited kids. Not only was the art activity fun, but it also had a welcomed calming effect on the children.
​
One thing I particularly appreciated was the ease of the party - there was no fuss or mess to worry about as Mandy also took care of the cleanup. The kids had a blast creating their art pieces, which now serve as mementoes of Daisy's special day.
I highly recommend Creative Matters for anyone looking to host a stress-free and memorable celebration – birthday or otherwise!"

Art Party Options
Our themes are fun, educational, appealing and designed to be accessible for all ages and abilities
Giant Donuts
Transform a piece of recycled cardboard into a delicious mixed media donut. Use yummy coloured acrylic paints to carefully ‘ice’ your cardboard, and learn about making beautiful pastel colours.
‘Sprinkle’ fun bits like glitter, cut up coloured paper and sequins on top making it look good enough to eat! And match your painted donuts with a plate of edible donuts to devour afterwards!
Foamy Clay + Wire Sculptures
Create a beautiful 3D sculpture using brightly coloured air drying foamy clay, several pieces of wire and traditional painted air dry clay for the base.
​
Etch, shape, stack, attach, design and combine colours in a way that forms a beautiful original sculpture using a number of different tools and techniques.
Name Art
Explore different artistic ways to present your name and choose your favourite.
Create your own individual name plaque on card using watercolour pencils, pastels, ink and dye.
Abstract Painting on Canvas
Create your own stunning abstract painted masterpiece on canvas.
Explore fun colour making using primary colours and white, then create a unique abstract painting to take home and hang on your bedroom wall.
​
Stand Out Animal Portraits
